GMB INTERNACIONAL,S.A.

What GMB INTERNACIONAL,S.A. does

GMB INTERNACIONAL, S.A. is a privately held Spanish Sociedad Anónima founded in 1987 and headquartered in Leganés (Madrid), with a manufacturing facility and export department in Manises (Valencia). The company formulates and distributes biocidal and public-health pest control products aimed primarily at professional pest control operators, with secondary reach into food-service/hospitality establishments, municipal infrastructure (sewer systems, Legionella control), and residential communities. Its portfolio spans ten product categories: rodenticides, insecticides, larvae control, disinfectants, Legionella control, xylophagous (wood-boring) pest control, bird control, application machinery, accessories, and personal protective equipment. The technical backbone is in-house chemistry rather than software: dedicated R&D+i and production laboratories conduct active-ingredient verification, density, weight, label, and packaging checks, with the flagship innovation being Crawjet Plus, a registered water-based acrylic-polymer gel formulation (imidacloprid 0.2% + tetramethrin 0.05%) certified for up to six months of residual cockroach control.

The business model is B2B wholesale distribution with a regional direct-sales overlay. GMB serves two structural customer layers: (1) distribution partners/principals — including BASF, KENOGARD, GLORIA WERKE, CURTIS DYNA-FOG, 3M ESPAÑA, ATLANTIC PASTE & GLUE, and SOCIETE ECOPIC — whose products GMB distributes into the Spanish market; and (2) downstream professional pest control companies plus food industry and municipal accounts. Pricing is unit-based with a freight-incentive threshold (orders over €300 net are shipped freight prepaid within mainland Spain; below that, freight is collect). Commercial coverage is split into Zone 1 (Andalucía, Asturias, Castilla y León, Castilla La Mancha, Extremadura, Galicia, Madrid) and Zone 2 (Baleares, Cataluña, Levante, Murcia), led by named regional Technical-Commercial Directors, plus a separate Export Department for international sales from the Valencia plant. Marketing channels are primarily the corporate website with downloadable PDF catalogs, direct sales outreach, and annual catalog refreshes (2026-27 catalog and the February 2025 ENVU co-branded catalog).

Quality and regulatory positioning is the most defensible element of the business. GMB holds ISO 9001:2015 certification for the commercialization of biocidal products, application equipment, and pest control tools, reinforced by EU-style biocide product registrations such as Crawjet Plus (Registration No. 20-30-10556 and 20-30-10556-HA). The company is privately held, has no disclosed parent, no subsidiaries, no funding rounds, no M&A activity, and no publicly disclosed revenue. Headcount sits in the 11-50 employee band, with a visible management team covering Madrid commercial operations, Valencia factory and regulatory affairs, R&D+i, production quality, orders, administration, and accounting. The overall footprint is a focused, family-to-mid-scale Spanish specialty chemicals distributor-formulator with international reach via export.
