The deal secures the future of 100 staff at both its Lockerbie, Scotland, and Burton-upon-Trent, England, factories, which produce a range of concrete tiles.
The tile business was bought by Russell Building Products backed by investors from Mexico who are currently seeking to expand into a number of countries across the world, including the UK and the United States.
Cemex announced this year it was seeking to dispose of all non-core assets such as Russell Roof Tiles, in order to pay down debt.

Partner Jeff Harris said: “RBP plans to continue to invest in both locations and this will hopefully create more jobs in due course.

“PKF developed a close working relationship with RBP’s management team and financiers in order to agree a deal that will help the business to grow both now and in the future.”
