Aterian Investment-backed US Zinc, a manufacturer of diversified zinc products, completed the acquisition of EverZinc, a manufacturer of zinc-based specialty chemicals, from OpenGate, an investment firm, for $405m. “When we acquired EverZinc, we believed the business had tremendous potential for geographic expansion and innovation, and, under Vincent’s leadership, new products were developed and new markets penetrated, which re-positioned the company for growth and enhanced profitability. It has been a truly rewarding experience working with Vincent and his team, and we’re confident that EverZinc is in great hands as it embarks on a new phase of growth," Julien Lagrèze, OpenGate Partner and Head of Europe.
