Balchem Completes Acquisition of Akzo Nobel’s European-based Choline Chloride and Methylamines Businesses at Marano Ticino, Italy
New Hampton, New York. May 1, 2007. Balchem Corporation (NASDAQ:BCPC) today announced the completion of its acquisition of the European-based choline chloride and methylamines businesses of Akzo Nobel Chemicals S.p.A. in Marano Ticino. Balchem and Akzo Nobel originally announced this acquisition on April 2, 2007. This facility and business will be operated by Balchem Italia, S.r.l. and employs approximately 75 people in Marano Ticino. In addition, a three person sales force operating out of Balchem Trading B.V. in the Netherlands will have primary responsibility for the marketing, sales and distribution of certain products produced at the facility. In 2006, the Akzo Nobel Marano Ticino business had approximately $35 million dollars (U.S.) in sales.
Balchem is a worldwide leader in the production and sales of various choline chloride products, which are nutritional additives to animal feed and human food products. Methylamines are a primary building block for the manufacture of choline products and have several other chemical applications.
Dino Rossi, Balchem’s President, CEO and Chairman added, “The closing of this transaction marks a tremendous step forward in the evolution and growth of Balchem. This acquisition provides a direct platform for Balchem to meet the growing market needs of methylamines, choline chloride and derivative products for customers via improved global sourcing, regulatory support, marketing and distribution capabilities.”
