- Fletcher Building Limited (FCREY) manufactures, distributes and sells a broad range of building materials and construction products; operates retail distribution networks; constructs infrastructure and commercial projects; and develops residential properties. The company produces light building products including plasterboard, insulation, steel roofing, cladding and laminates through brands such as Gib, Pink Batts, Colorsteel and Formica; heavy building materials encompassing cement, aggregates, concrete, quarrying and steel; distribution via PlaceMakers retail stores; residential homes and land development under Fletcher Living; and construction services for major infrastructure, commercial buildings and public works. Fletcher Building serves residential, commercial and infrastructure markets primarily in New Zealand and Australia, with additional operations in the South Pacific, and employs approximately 12,500 people across more than 34 business units. Headquartered in Auckland, New Zealand, the company traces its origins to 1909 when James Fletcher built his first house in Dunedin, with Fletcher Bros Ltd incorporated in 1915 and the modern entity demerged from Fletcher Challenge in 2001; it is dual-listed on the NZX and ASX. In recent developments, Fletcher Building completed the sale of its 13.4% stake in the NX2 Puhoi to Warkworth toll road public-private partnership for NZ$20.2 million in November 2025, concluding its equity exposure to PPP investments to focus on core manufacturing and distribution; conducted a NZ$700 million equity raise in September 2024 to strengthen its balance sheet under new Group CEO Andrew Reding, who commenced in August 2024; and initiated a strategic review of its residential and development business, issuing sale documents to potential buyers including GIC, Supalai, Daiwa House, Lendlease, Blackstone and Invesco in late 2025, alongside evaluating options for its construction arm.
