    Altana advises Azulis Capital in the sale of Holweg Weber to Motion Equity Partners


    Paris, May 31, 2018

    Six years after its spin-off from DCM Group and its acquisition by Azulis Capital and its co-investors BNP Paribas Développement and Unigrains, Holweg Weber, the global leader in the conception, development and assembly of paper packaging solutions, has been acquired by Motion Equity Partners.

    Altana advised Azulis Capital and its co-investors in this Franco-American sale, accompanied by Morrison & Foerster LLP for the American aspects. Additionally, this transaction, financed by the debt fund LGT European Capital Limited, constitutes a new MBO for certain managers of the group.

    Through this transaction, Altana once again demonstrates the firm’s expertise in the advanced industrial technology domain and in the structuring of cross-border transactions.
