The transaction marks a step-change in scale for Molins, positioning the company among the largest mid-size players in the global building materials and solutions sector.
March 23rd, 2026 – Molins has completed the acquisition of 100% of Secil Companhia Geral de Cal e Cimento, S.A. from the Portuguese industrial group Semapa – Sociedade de Investimento e Gestão, SGPS, S.A., following the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
Secil is a leading provider of building materials and construction solutions, with a strong industrial footprint and established positions in its core markets, generating revenues of €751 million and EBITDA of €195 million in 2025.
With this acquisition, Molins expands its presence in Portugal and enters Brazil, strengthening its footprint in Latin America. The transaction represents a step-change in scale for the company, bringing Molins to a new dimension within the sector. It also supports a more diversified geographic footprint and reduces exposure to currency volatility.
The addition of Secil strengthens Molins’ industrial platform and expands its presence across key businesses, including cement, concrete & aggregates, construction solutions, precast solutions and circular economy, further diversifying the company’s business profile and market presence.
Both companies share a strong commitment to sustainability. Secil is part of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), while Molins has recently joined the initiative as part of its decarbonization roadmap.
Marcos Cela, CEO de Molins, said: “Completing this transaction represents an important milestone in Molins’ growth strategy. The addition of Secil supports the transformation of our company and helps us build a more efficient organization, while expanding our international footprint and industrial scale. It also enables us to continue developing innovative and sustainable solutions for our customers and strengthens our ability to compete globally. I would also like to warmly welcome Secil’s employees to Molins”
