MoreRPM International Inc. recently announced that its RPM Building Solutions Group (RPM BSG) has signed an agreement to acquire FEMA Farben + Putze GmbH (FEMA GmbH) of Ettlingen, Germany. FEMA GmbH is a leading manufacturer and supplier of external insulating and finishing systems (EIFS) and complementary product lines to the German and French construction markets, with annual sales of more than $40 million.
