Our investment
We acquired Halex out of insolvency in 2013 and supported the company’s turnaround and transformation into a market-leading industrial platform. Together with management, we restructured the central organisation, improved the performance of individual sites, and invested in capacity expansion and several strategic add-on acquisitions. Under our ownership, Halex achieved strong organic growth, implemented best-in-class systems and processes, and significantly increased profitability. The company was acquired by Bencis Capital Partners in 2018, which is supporting its next phase of development and growth.
