We are pleased to announce that SRP Advisors, LLC acted as exclusive financial advisor to the shareholders of Kelcourt Plastics, Inc. in connection with the sale of the company to PPC Industries, Inc. Headquartered in San Clemente, CA, Kelcourt Plastics is the leading extruder of thermoplastic tubing to the disposable medical device industry with manufacturing operations in the US, Asia and Europe. PPC Industries, headquartered in Pleasant Prairie, WI, is a leading manufacturer of value added flexible packaging for food, industrial and medical markets and a manufacturer of medical grade tubing from a clean room production facility in Costa Rica. By combining with Kelcourt Plastics, PPC Industries will greatly strengthen and broaden its medical tubing capabilities as well as obtain valuable expertise in the field of medical grade compounds and materials. At the same time, PPC Industries will provide Kelcourt Plastics the opportunity to offer medical films, pouches and other packaging products to its global medical device customer base.
This transaction yielded an attractive outcome for Kelcourt Plastics’ shareholders, senior management, and employees, and positions the company to offer additional, value added products and services to its customers. This transaction also extends the successful track record of SRP Advisors working with leading companies in the medical device manufacturing market.
“After I decided this was an opportunity I wanted to pursue, it was obvious that I would need professional assistance to guide me through this process. I immediately thought of Sean. His knowledge and experience was key to the successful completion of this sale.”
