102 – 10 Significant changes to the organization and its supply chain |
| In the 2017/18 financial year, dormakaba has combined its two smallest segments, Key Systems and Movable Walls, to form the Key & Walls Solutions segment with a joint leadership team. The individual businesses have not been merged operationally and continue to be run under separate brands. Further, we came to an agreement to divide existing shareholding in Dorset Kaba among the joint venture partners as per agreed terms, thus dissolving the joint venture that was initiated by former Kaba Group in 2007. Two divestments took place, one being the sale of our low-performing business Dorma Beschlagtechnik. This was followed in September 2017 by the sale of Chinese company GMT, due to the existing business portfolio and the prospects for profitability. Further adjustments to the business portfolio include two larger acquisitions. We acquired Australian company Kilargo in July 2017 to strengthen our market position in the Pacific region. In the same month, we acquired Skyfold, a Canadian producer of automated vertical partition wall systems that has a strong position in North America. As part of the post-merger integration activities, the relocation of standard door closer production from Ennepetal to Singapore has been accomplished in June 2018. | |

In one case this was due to administrative errors on the side of the company. In the other location, fines were imposed due to a wastewater spill after the site was hit by a typhoon. A new waste iron residue capture place was constructed, with a ditch diversion and a catchment for collecting any leaking oil in future. There is anti-seepage treatment on the ground. A further fine was given for operating a painting line without the required environmental impact assessment and environmental protection equipment. Since the incident, the issue has been corrected and the company has received qualified environmental impact assessment reports. | |
