Luxem­bourg / Gajków (Poland) — Dywi­­dag-Systems Inter­na­tio­nal (“DYWIDAG”), a port­fo­lio company of Triton Fund III, has announ­ced the acqui­si­tion of PARTEC System (“PARTEC”). PARTEC was foun­ded 20 years ago by Krzy­sz­tof Kotarba as a specia­li­zed manu­fac­tu­rer and distri­bu­tor of perma­nent form­work and hydro­in­su­la­tion systems for the cons­truc­tion sector. The company is based in Gajków near Wroclaw and opera­tes throug­hout Europe. This acqui­si­tion is an important step in DYWIDAG’s expan­sion to meet the needs of the Euro­pean market.

The speed and relia­bi­lity of PARTEC, combi­ned with DYWIDAG’s distri­bu­tion chan­nels, is expec­ted to gene­rate signi­fi­cant growth and product deve­lo­p­ment within the Group. Krzy­s­tof Kotarba said, “It is clear that DYWIDAG’s values and vision reflect my values and those of the PARTEC orga­niza­tion. These shared prin­ci­ples and DYWIDAG’s ambi­tion provide PARTEC with an exci­ting oppor­tu­nity to conti­nue to grow and become an inte­gral part of future busi­ness success.”

Ian Jarvis, Presi­dent of Concrete Access­ories DYWIDAG, said, “We are plea­sed to welcome the PARTEC team to DYWIDAG. This is an important mile­stone for our Concrete Access­ories busi­ness, which we intend to further expand in the area, and to build a strong presence in the Polish market. This provi­des us with grea­ter oppor­tu­ni­ties for the emer­ging markets in Eastern Europe. ”
Matti Kuiva­lai­nen, CEO of DYWIDAG, said: “Stra­te­gi­cally, we see many oppor­tu­ni­ties in Europe. I am very plea­sed that PARTEC has become part of the DYWIDAG family. The acqui­si­tion of PARTEC streng­thens the busi­ness area and our posi­tion in specialty buil­ding materials. ”
