Regional Growth Remains Uneven

Asia-Pacific led with 8.0 percent organic growth, supported by India and Southeast Asia. Europe grew 2.5 percent, while the Americas advanced 0.6 percent as North America grew but Latin America contracted.

For investors, the release points to a pricing-led growth profile rather than broad volume expansion. The next scheduled milestone is Saint-Gobain's 2026 results, due after the Paris market close on February 18, 2027.
