Camoplast Solideal Inc. acquires Rodaco to improve its capacity to manufacture and distribute tyres for the material handling industry in South America. Rodaco was founded in 1997. It operates manufacturing facilities in Porto Alegre and Buenos Aires, as well as a distribution centre in São Paulo. The business has become a respected and reliable provider of material handling tyres throughout the region due to employee empowerment, an established network and a strong focus on customer service.
“Having a physical presence in Latin America is an important component to achieving our global growth objectives in material handling”, says Francois Augnet, Chief Operating Officer – Construction and Material Handling at Camoplast Solideal. “By combining our manufacturing and distribution processes with the local knowledge and reputation of the team at Rodaco, we will have a unique offering to best serve this growing market.”
Employees from both organizations will collaborate to become a bigger, better team. This acquisition establishes Camoplast Solideal’s industrial footprint in the region and demonstrates the company’s dedication to consolidating its position as the leader in the off-the-road mobility sector.
