Portfolio includes extruded rubber profiles and gaskets for “niche” construction, industrial and automotive applications
Trelleborg, Sweden – Trelleborg Industrial Solutions (TIS) has signed an agreement and finalised the acquisition of National Gummi AB from the Swedish industrial group National.
The business portfolio comprises extruded rubber profiles and gaskets for niche construction, industrial and automotive applications, said Trelleborg Group in a statement 2 April.
National’s operations outside extruded rubber profiles and gaskets are not included in this transaction and will remain part of the National group.
With a production base in Halmstad, Sweden, the acquired business generated sales of SEK150 million (€14 million) in 2024, principally in Northern Europe.
The acquisition, said Trelleborg, is part of the group’s strategy “to develop leading positions within attractive segments.”
“National has specialist capabilities and knowhow which will allow us to broaden our value-adding offering to customers across Europe,” said TIS president Jean-Paul Mindermann.
