Mann McGowan and KuhnOdice Ltd (formerly CH Materials) have completed a merger, officially uniting under the new company name KuhnOdice UK.
The move brings together decades of expertise, technical innovation, and market leadership to create a comprehensive, one-stop solution for the full spectrum of fire protection requirements.
The merger represents a significant milestone for both organisations as they consolidate operations in Aldershot and align capabilities across product development, customer service, and technical support.
Strengthening Market Position
Merging together enhances the company’s ability to serve industries with a broader portfolio of technically advanced passive fire protection products, integrated manufacturing capabilities, and expanded R&D capacity.
Innovation Leader
The name KuhnOdice embodies decades of cutting-edge expertise: KuhnOdice has emerged from the German Rolf Kuhn GmbH and Odice S.A.S, which is based in France, two pioneering manufacturers among the first to identify and successfully unlock the transformative potential of intumescent materials for fire safety applications.
Now united under the KuhnOdice brand, the group provides a market-leading portfolio of future-ready solutions with KuhnOdice UK set to play a leading role in driving growth and innovation across the British market.
Jamie Scott, Director, KuhnOdice UK said: “Each company has built a strong reputation in the fire protection market, and as KuhnOdice UK Ltd we are perfectly positioned to deliver even greater value through innovation, expertise, and most importantly a seamless customer experience.”
Peter Nisbet, Business Development, KuhnOdice UK added: “The integration of our teams gives us a unique platform to accelerate product development and strengthen our position as a trusted partner across the construction and fire safety sectors. We remain committed to supporting our customers with the same consistency, quality and technical excellence they have always relied on.”
