Mehler AG - subsidiary of KAP Beteiligungs-AG - on the

Sale

of its 74% stake in Kirson Industrial Reinforcement to Saint-Gobain

value not disclosed

Publicly listed, French industrial conglomerate Saint-Gobain has signed a share purchase agreement to acquire 100% in Kirson Industrial Reinforcements GmbH from Mehler AG (74% stake) and the minority shareholder (remaining 26% stake). Kirson Industrial Reinforcements is a specialist manufacturer of industrial fabrics for the most varied of applications. The company offers scrims made from polyester- and/or glass fibers as well as scrim laminates made with glass or polyester-nonwovens applied mainly for roofing membranes within the construction industry.

 

Fortlane Partners acting as exclusive M&A advisor to majority stake owner Mehler AG has managed a swift execution process in less than 3 months while the deal marks a successful follow-up situation to the sale of a majority stake of publicly listed KAP Beteiligungs-AG to global alternative asset manager The Carlyle Group end of 2016. Thereby, Fortlane Partners acted as exclusive M&A advisor to the sellers of KAP Beteiligungs-AG.

 

The integration of Kirson Industrial Reinforcements into Saint-Gobain's High-Performance Materials Activity will complete Adfors' offer for the waterproofing membrane market and help develop the sales of its products worldwide. This acquisition is fully in line with Saint-Gobain's strategy to consolidate its positioning on high performance solutions in the housing and construction sector.

 

The transaction is subject to approval by the German antitrust authority, and is expected to close during early Q3 2017.
