14.06.2013 – Having hived off the Thermal Processes business unit into a separate company last October, Bühler has now sold the majority to the Swiss private equity firm Cross. Contracts to that effect were signed on June 4, 2013. The transaction is subject to the approval of – among others – the competition authorities. The new majority shareholder is taking over Bühler Thermal Processes with its management team and all its employees at its pre-sent location in Oberbüren while adding experienced industry experts to its Board of Directors. Bühler retains its link with the company through a substantial minority holding.
As opposed to the rest of the Bühler Advanced Materials division, Bühler Thermal Processes AG (BPAG) focuses on multifunctional large-scale plants.
