Key management of Rixonway will remain in operation until at least March 2016.

The company expects the acquisition to have a positive effect on Nobia’s margin and earnings from 2015, with the full effect in 2017.

Morten Falkenberg, president and CEO of Nobia said: “The acquisition of Rixonway Kitchens is part of our growth strategy to expand to markets and segments that complement Nobia’s existing businesses. We double our market share in the UK project market, which provides new opportunities for value creation for Nobia’s shareholders.”
