Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton is pleased to have advised Matériaux Spécialisés Louiseville (“MSL”) in securing Desjardins Capital as a long-term strategic equity investor.
Since its founding in 2004, Louiseville-based MSL’s focus on innovation and sustainability, has allowed the company to establish itself as a leading global manufacturer of environmentally friendly fibreboard products designed for roofing, soundproofing and thermal insulation in commercial and residential applications.
MSL’s partnership with Desjardins Capital (“DC”) will allow the company to further accelerate its growth trajectory, including the ongoing North American roll-out of its soundproofing solution SONOpan. Using its patented Noise STOP TechnologyTM, SONOpan provides easy-to-install, cost-effective and highly efficacious soundproofing solutions made from 100% recycled and recyclable materials.
“MSL is already a leader in its niche building product applications, and we are very excited about partnering with its top-tier management team to take its growth to the next level” says Jean-Philippe Bujold, Investment Director at Desjardins Capital.
MSL called on Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton’s Corporate Finance team to advise the Company on financing its growth and investment plan.
“I would strongly recommend RCGT’s Corporate Finance team to any entrepreneur considering a financing or M&A transaction”, states Patrick Wellington, President and CEO of MSL. “They are a world class team wholly dedicated to the success of their clients and seamless achievement of objectives. They exceeded my expectations on all levels”
