Alantra advised RUAG on the sale of its subsidiary RUAG Coatings AG to Germany-listed Impreglon SE

Oct 2012

Sell-side advisory

Alantra acted as sole financial advisor to RUAG, a Swiss technology group active in the aerospace and defense sectors, in the sale of its subsidiary RUAG Coatings AG to Germany-listed Impreglon SE, one of the world’s leading specialists in surface engineering. RUAG Coatings AG is based in Altdorf, Switzerland and provides surface coating services to more than 250 customers in Switzerland, Germany and Austria. RUAG took the decision to sell its coating activities as they are not part of its core business and have better future prospects within a leading specialist and international group like Impreglon.
