EverZinc products are sold to customers around the world for use in a variety of applications, including anti-corrosion paints, tires, pharmaceutical chemicals, ceramics and glass, and sunscreens.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe business is led by CEO, Vincent Dujardin, and was acquired by OpenGate Capital in 2016 through a corporate carve-out from Umicore. During OpenGate\u2019s ownership, EverZinc grew EBITDA by 2x, and expanded its product mix and geographic footprint, all while further strengthening its ESG attributes.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nJulien Lagr\u00e8ze, OpenGate Partner and Head of Europe, commented on the transaction, stating, \u201cWhen we acquired EverZinc, we believed the business had tremendous potential for geographic expansion and innovation, and, under Vincent\u2019s leadership, new products were developed and new markets penetrated, which re-positioned the company for growth and enhanced profitability. It has been a truly rewarding experience working with Vincent and his team, and we\u2019re confident that EverZinc is in great hands as it embarks on a new phase of growth.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nEverZinc will join U.S. Zinc, a global zinc chemistry and material science business, manufacturing diversified zinc products including zinc oxide, zinc powder, and zinc metal used in end markets such as tires, chemicals, coatings, and agriculture.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nCommenting on the sale, Dujardin stated, \u201cI am incredibly proud of leading EverZinc, which is an innovative, diverse, and global business that is supported by an incredibly dedicated team of people. I am confident that the business will have much success with U.S. Zinc.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nJefferies served as lead financial advisor and Stifel served as financial advisor to OpenGate Capital.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nAbout OpenGate Capital\n<\/p>\n<p>\nOpenGate Capital is a global private equity firm specializing in the acquisition and operation of businesses to create new value through operational improvements, innovation, and growth.
