Proventis Partners advised OC Oerlikon

Oerlikon has acquired Sucotec AG, a Swiss manufacturer specializing in CVD (Chemical Vapour Deposition) equipment for the tools market. The acquisition enhances the range of products and services provided by Liechtenstein-based coating specialist Oerlikon Balzers, which focuses on PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) and PACVD (Plasma Assisted Chemical Vapour Deposition). Day-to-day operations at the existing site, as well as business and collaboration with Sucotec customers and partners, will continue as before under the management of previous CEO Werner Bürgin, now as part of Oerlikon Balzers.

Sucotec AG stands out from its competitors primarily through the high quality of its CVD and PACVD coating systems and the outstanding commitment to its customers in all areas, from adaptation to specific customer requirements in the early system development phase through to its after-sales service.

OC Oerlikon is one of the world’s leading high-tech industrial groups with over 11,000 employees and more than CHF 2.5 billion in sales.

Proventis Partners advised OC Oerlikon Corporation exclusively as transaction advisor on the deal.
