(Reuters) - Travis Perkins (L:TPK), Britain's biggest supplier of building materials, will name Stuart Chambers, the former chairman of chip designer ARM Holdings (LON:ARM), on Tuesday as its next chairman, Sky News reported.

Chambers has been picked to replace‎ Robert Walker, who has chaired Travis Perkins for the last seven years, it reported.

Travis Perkins' media department said in a statement it would not comment on the report.

Travis Perkins reported a 4.9 percent growth in total sales in the first quarter of 2017 and said that it was on track to meet its full year expectations.

Earlier this month Anglo American (LON:AAL) said it had appointed Chambers to succeed John Parker as the miner's next chairman and carry on with its overhaul.

Anglo American did not comment on the report.
