Maccaferri has acquired Surface-Tech LLC. The financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
The acquisition is part of Maccaferri's creation of a new High-Performance Materials vertical within its Group, which also involved the acquisition of Iterchimica. This new vertical combines Maccaferri’s geosynthetics and engineering solutions, Iterchimica’s additives, and Surface Tech’s aramid fibre reinforcement. The aim is to create an integrated offering for roads, spanning from subgrade to surface and covering the full lifecycle from construction to maintenance and regeneration.
Maccaferri stated that these acquisitions mark an important milestone in its transformation to a global environmental engineering platform. The Group employs a buy-and-build strategy to combine specialist businesses with its engineering expertise and international reach, aiming to build a leader in durable, resource-efficient, and climate-resilient infrastructure.
