As a global full-service provider in the flooring sector, we support professional floor layers in all areas with our six brands. Our clear focus on the core competence of flooring is our global concern. This enables us to develop comprehensive system solutions without having to compromise. From construction chemical product systems and surface finishes to machinery, we offer our customers a wide range of products for soil cultivation. Our aim is to combine the latest technology with the wishes of our customers in the best possible way, while acting in a sustainable and growth-oriented manner. To ensure this, we are in constant contact with floor layers and other processors of our products. We see ourselves as a partner to the trade and as a driver of innovation in the industry. This is why research and development are so important to us. The focus is on the development of healthy and environmentally friendly building products. We are active in 53 countries, 20 of which have their own production and/or sales companies (as of December 2024). Our business focuses primarily on Germany and the other European markets as well as North America. We also have Asian production facilities in China and Indonesia.

Uzin Utz SE, based in Ulm, is at the top of the Group structure. As Uzin Utz SE is a European company, it is primarily subject to the provisions of the European SE Regulation (Council Regulation (EC) No. 2157/2001 of October 8, 2001 on the Statute for a European company (SE) (OJ L 294 of November 10, 2001)) and the national SE Implementation Act (SE-AG) of December 22, 2004 (BGBl. I p. 3675). In terms of content, the national Stock Corporation Act is regularly applied via references, in particular Art. 9 (1) SE Regulation. In order to maintain the clarity of the presentation, the complete chain of standards is not quoted in this annual report. Any reference to provisions of the German Stock Corporation Act is to be understood as a reference within the meaning of the reference provisions of the specific SE law.

Uzin Utz SE performs the tasks of Group management. In addition to the research, development, production and sale of environmentally friendly and sustainable building products, it is therefore responsible for a central management and administrative function. Strategic and sustainable decisions are discussed together with the subsidiaries in annual international planning meetings, which enable the Group management to make well-founded decisions. Structurally, the companies are subdivided as follows:

A detailed view of the shareholdings of all Group companies can be found in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

With the six brands UZIN, WOLFF, PALLMANN, arturo, codex and Pajarito, we offer our customers decades of flooring expertise in the international market for the installation, renovation and maintenance of floor coverings of all kinds.
