FLUORSID announces today the sale of its portfolio company Alkeemia Spa and the related assets, including the plant in Porto Marghera in Italy and the 50% participation in CF Carbons in Germany, to funds managed by Blantyre Capital Limited.

The sale is part of a broader strategy, aimed to focus the operations of the company towards its core expertise within the fluorochemicals for the aluminium industry, in which FLUORSID has built a proven track record of more than 50 years and today operates as world leader.
Alkeemia is one of the main producers of anhydrous hydrogen fluoride (AHF) in Europe. Blantyre Capital recognises the company’s leading position and potential, together with its strong management expertise, and believes the company is uniquely positioned to continue its growth investment plans.

The closing has been signed today implying that FLUORSID and Blantyre Capital will ensure an orderly transition of ownership, allowing the preservation of jobs and the continuing delivery of existing services to Alkeemia’s customers whilst complying with the highest safety and environmental standards.
