Light Science Technologies Holdings plc (LSE:LST) has secured its first Injectaclad supply contract following the acquisition of RLUK Injection, marking an early commercial milestone for its passive fire protection division.
The £0.41m order covers the supply of fire-resistant graphite barrier materials for a 19-week residential project in East Yorkshire. Within just over two weeks of completing the acquisition, the company has already secured commitments from five of the 11 accredited Injectaclad installers, highlighting strong early demand for the offering.
Rapid Integration and Distribution Setup
The group has moved quickly to integrate RLUK Injection into its operations, completing the initial phase of alignment across IT systems, management reporting, legal structures, and logistics.
To support distribution, a dedicated warehouse has been established at its Manchester-based contract electronics facility, ensuring efficient supply of Injectaclad products as demand grows.
Growth Strategy Focused on Fire Safety Market
Light Science Technologies is positioning itself as both a supplier and installer within the fire remediation sector, aiming to capture greater value across the supply chain.
Management points to a growing project pipeline and increasing specification of Injectaclad solutions in Building Safety Regulator applications as key drivers for expansion. This dual role, combined with higher-margin product offerings, is expected to improve revenue visibility and support progress toward sustainable profitability.
Outlook: Mixed Performance With Signs of Improvement
The company’s outlook remains constrained by uneven profitability and a decline in revenue in FY2025, which saw a return to losses. Longer-term technical indicators also remain weak, with the share price below key moving averages and negative momentum signals.
However, these challenges are partially offset by improvements in leverage and a recent return to positive operating and free cash flow.
