Structural waterproofing provider snapped up by Bradford firm

Bradford-based Oscrete, a manufacturer of concrete admixtures, has acquired PUDLO Products, a St Neots provider of structural waterproofing and gas protection systems.

PUDLO’s product portfolio will complement Oscrete’s core admixture technologies, providing the business with a more comprehensive and integrated suite of products. The integration of PUDLO will also create opportunities for collaboration across R&D, technical support, and customer service, to serve the construction market more effectively.

With over 150 years of technical expertise, the move strengthens PUDLO’s national coverage, advances product innovation, and enhances delivery across key construction markets. By joining forces with Oscrete PUDLO gains access to expanded technical capabilities and infrastructure, creating a platform for collaborative growth.

Scott Wilson, MD of Oscrete, said: “Our acquisition of PUDLO Products is a significant chapter in our company’s business and establishes an even stronger future for this Bradford brand.

“The new, strengthened Oscrete business model and presence across the UK construction sector ensures this team and this business has the infrastructure and the expertise to become the leading supplier of concrete admixtures and additives / construction products in the country.”

Gary Laird, MD of PUDLO, added: “I’m thrilled to be joining the PUDLO Products team full time as we continue the momentum built over the past 15 months.

“It’s an exciting time—this partnership opens new doors for innovation, growth, and delivering even greater value to our customers. We’re building on a strong foundation and I look forward to helping drive the next phase of PUDLO’s journey.”
