In the face of economically difficult times, this strengthens the company’s international market position and protects the future of the Austrian abrasives manufacturer in the long term. The takeover agreement was signed in July 2009 and the price was not disclosed. The takeover strengthens the market position of the Tyrolit group in North America and safeguards the company’s heavily export-oriented operations in Austria. Consolidation of Tyrolit The new synergies in the areas of production, purchasing, sales and customer service will open up new opportunities in the American market. Because of the considerable market size, the demand for abrasives in North America accounts for almost 25% of global abrasives demand. According to the Tyrolit management, consolidation has been a major and lasting trend in the industry for many years. The current economic crisis further accelerates this development. Tyrolit is facing these challenges by actively participating in this concentration process. The acquisition of Radiac safeguards the international future of Tyrolit while protecting the production site and jobs in Schwaz. Taking over Radiac Abrasives will lead to a long-term consolidation of a considerable share of sales of precision products at the heavily export-oriented site in Schwaz. Radiac jobs and brand will stay Radiac is the second largest manufacturer of bonded and super abrasive grinding wheels in Northern America. The company operates four manufacturing facilities in the USA and Mexico. In 2008, Radiac achieved annual sales of US$77 million with approximately 400 employees. Headquartered in Salem, Illinois, the company has production centres, sales and representative offices at various locations in the USA, Canada, Mexico, Latin America, Ireland and Poland. Radiac will be retained as an independent brand and ideally complements Tyrolit’s portfolio in the US. Tyrolit management said: “Based on Tyrolit’s long-standing, sound technical expertise and our wide range of products, we expect to be able to leverage significant distribution synergies for the expansion of Radiac’s range.” www.tyrolit.com The Dust-Fighter, part of the Gladiator Range from Towerlight is synonymous with innovation, quality and environmentally friendly products for both construction and industrial applications.
