Description

Owens Corning’s glass reinforcements (GR) business is a leading global provider of solutions matching the differentiated needs of the growing composites industry. Leveraging a powerful combination of material science, manufacturing excellence, and deep market and customer knowledge, the GR business provides sustainable, customer-centric solutions for the global wind, building and construction, thermoplastic compounding, and composites specialty markets.
Earlier this year, Owens Corning signed a definitive agreement to sell the GR business to Praana Group, an India-based firm operating a portfolio of companies primarily serving industrial sectors including specialty chemicals and fiberglass reinforcements for composites. The transaction, which is expected to close by the end of 2025, will position the GR business to further leverage its strong positions in key regions and applications as a core element of Praana’s growth strategy. The path ahead promises to be dynamic, providing exciting opportunities for our 4,100 employees across 12 countries. We are committed to building on our proud legacy as a pioneer in the composites industry and taking advantage of new opportunities to redefine the future and grow and thrive with Praana and our customers.
