Polymers firm Trelleborg Group has, through its business area Trelleborg Industrial Solutions, bought over Sico Gesellschaft für Siliconverarbeitung mbH and Czech joint venture company Sico Silicone s.r.o. Trelleborg has been a 50/50 joint venture partner in Sico Silicone since 2016.
Sico develops and manufactures a range of engineered extruded and moulded silicone rubber products, including tubes, hoses, and profiles, for food and beverage, healthcare, automotive niches, and building and construction. Headquartered in Witten, Germany, with additional production in Velké Po?í?í, Czech Republic, the company’s consolidated sales amounted to approximately SEK280 million in 2024. This bolt-on acquisition aligns with Trelleborg’s strategy to grow in attractive industries that complement and strengthen the Group’s existing offerings.
“We are delighted to welcome Sico to Trelleborg. The acquisition strengthens our silicone capabilities in Europe and will allow us to offer customers a broader range of high-quality solutions,” says Jean Paul Mindermann, President of the Trelleborg Industrial Solutions business area.
