Oxy Signalétique has acquired Sud Laser
February 2022 — Oxy Signalétique has acquired Sud Laser and strengthens its know-how and market share in the technical marking and visual communication sector.
Founded in 1978 by François Robin and headquartered in Marseille, France, Oxy Signalétique quickly became a leading expert in the fields of technical marking and visual communication, and a preferred supplier for blue-ship customers such as Airbus, Airbus Helicopters, SNCF and major banks. Oxy Signalétique has developed a wide range of techniques and tailored products (digital, screen, textured and dye-sub printing, thermal transfers, photoengraving, cutting, engraving and finishing) to meet customers’ needs. The company has two production sites and 100 employees.
Founded in 1993, Sud Laser is a regional leader in the field of technical marking and visual communication for vehicles (buses, coaches, utility vehicles, trucks and light vehicles). Its products include the impression of panels, small and large size adhesives, stickers, the cutting of tinted vinyl, the realization of tarpaulins, roll-up and interior and exterior signage.
Our role in the transaction
In addition to assisting Oxy Signalétique in structuring its LBO, Oaklins’ team in France also negotiated the acquisition of Sud Laser. The team was able to execute the deal in a 6-month timeframe, while securing the financing and playing the main role in the organization, negotiation and completion of this transaction.
