Norman Hay plc has successfully acquired the share capital of Internationale Metall IMPrägnier GmbH (IMP) and the assets of Ing Hubert Maldaner GmbH (Maldaner).
The acquisition further strengthens the clear industry leadership position of Ultraseal International, a Norman Hay company, in the development, manufacture and global supply of impregnation sealants, equipment and services for sealing porosity and leak paths in die cast, sintered and electrical components.
Headquartered in Germany, IMP and Maldaner develop, manufacture and supply impregnation sealants and impregnation process equipment on a global basis and also provide impregnation services to customers in Europe through job shops located in Langenfeld, Leipzig and Unterensingen.
