We’re pleased to have supported RED Systems, one of the UK’s leading commercial glazing, aluminium façade and window specialists, as it enters into a new partnership with NorDan UK. NorDan has acquired a majority shareholding in RED Systems to combine its manufacturing capabilities with RED’s installation, SFS and aluminium façade services.
In becoming part of the Norwegian-based NorDan Group, the deal helps cement RED’s position as one of the UK’s largest glazing specialists.
The partnership will combine family owned NorDan’s long-standing manufacturing expertise and product performance with RED Systems’ proven UK delivery capability, enhancing the overall service offering to customers across both their commercial and residential markets.
Our Corporate team – led by Matt Noon (Partner) and supported by Elizabeth Jones (Legal Director) and Sidney Pearson (Trainee Solicitor) – provided lead legal advice to RED Systems.
Cheshire-based RED Systems will retain a significant shareholding interest in the company moving forward and the RED team, including the current Board of Directors, will continue to be responsible for the strategic direction and day-to-day operation of the business.
RED Systems is a long-standing client of Hill Dickinson and it has been a privilege to support the business as it has grown and evolved into one of the UK’s leading glazing and façade specialists. Being able to advise Mike, Finance Director Pete Moss and the team on this significant milestone in its journey is particularly rewarding. The partnership with NorDan UK brings together two businesses with complementary strengths and shared values, and positions RED strongly for its next phase of growth as part of the wider NorDan Group.Matt Noon
