Rubis develops strategic European bitumen distribution platform

Rubis has announced the development of a strategic European platform for bitumen distribution. The acquisition includes the purchase of facilities and operations from European Bitumen Distribution (EBD), which was previously part of the Eurovia group.

The acquired business focuses on the sale, storage, and distribution of bitumen in Belgium, France, the Netherlands, and Germany. This move is expected to strengthen Rubis's position in the European bitumen market and expand its geographical coverage.

The Rubis group already has a diverse presence in the energy sector, including involvement in aviation fuel, industrial fuels, and liquefied petroleum gas. The company has signaled intentions for further growth across various energy segments and regions.

This acquisition of EBD is part of Rubis's broader strategy to enhance its European footprint and pursue new business opportunities within the energy industry.
