HLE Glascoat on Friday, 17 September, 2021 announced the signing of definitive agreements to acquire the global business of Thaletec GmbH, Germany as well as its subsidiary Thaletec USA, as a part of its strategy to strengthen its position further in the global markets with innovative technology. As a part of the deal, both companies have mutually agreed that Thaletec will continue to have its distinct brand identity and remain a separate business entity post the acquisition, the company said in a press release.

The acquisition will enhance efficiencies and combine the similar business interests for both the entities, resulting in operational synergies, streamlining and optimization of the businesses, the company release stated.
