DUBAG Group, a prominent private equity investor, has acquired the liquid food filling operations of Ampack GmbH and Osgood Industries, LLC from Syntegon Group.
Ampack, located in Koenigsbrunn, Germany, and Osgood, based in Oldsmar, USA, are leading providers of technology for filling liquid and viscous food products into preformed cups and bottles.
Moving forward, both companies will operate under the unified brand name Ceratech Group, maintaining their close international collaboration. The acquisition was conducted through DUBAG’s LEO III fund. Financial details of the transaction have not been disclosed.
DUBAG Group specializes in carving out companies with high growth potential. Recognizing that the workforce’s technological expertise is crucial for long-term growth, DUBAG plans to retain all of the approximately 300 employees from Ampack and Osgood.
This acquisition aligns with DUBAG’s strategy of investing in specialized businesses with strong market positions and growth opportunities. By bringing these two companies under the Ceratech Group umbrella, DUBAG aims to leverage their combined strengths and expand their market presence in the liquid food filling sector.
“Ampack and Osgood have an excellent reputation in the food industry and are known for delivering high-quality and a broad machine portfolio. Both companies have technological expertise, many years of R&D experience and a global customer base – promising preconditions for successful economic growth in an attractive market environment,” says Dr. Michael Schumann, founder and CEO of DUBAG.
