Keylite acquires rooflight ranges from Whitesales

Keylite Roof Windows (‘Keylite’), part of The Keystone Group, has acquired the Em.glaze and Ray.lux flat glass rooflight ranges from Whitesales Ltd., as part of a multi‑million‑pound growth strategy for the company.

This move brings Whitesales’ flagship flat‑glass product lines into Keylite’s portfolio of roof‑glazing solutions, strengthening its offering across both pitched and flat roof applications.

Whitesales and Keylite have also agreed a strategic partnership under which Keylite will take over the servicing of Whitesales’ merchant reseller customer base, including major roofing merchants, builders’ merchants and online resellers. This gives merchants a single ordering point through Keylite while maintaining existing products, pricing structures and service standards.

Managing director at Keylite, Jim Blanthorne, said: “Our aim is not to change what Whitesales has done but to strengthen it. By bringing the supply-only flat roof windows part of the business into Keylite, we simplify the supply chain and improve operational efficiency, enabling us to be faster, more agile and responsive to customer needs, while remaining focused on delivering the same quality and care as before.

“The acquisition will help accelerate a multi-million-pound growth strategy for Keylite, enhancing and expanding our manufacturing capabilities. For customers, that translates into greater availability of stock, faster lead times and even better technical expertise.”
