On 30 December 2023, Egeria and the Trioworld Group signed an agreement to acquire Wentus GmbH. Wentus GmbH is therefore expected to become a new member of the Trioworld Group from the beginning of 2024.

As a financial investor, Egeria has accompanied and supported the development and transformation of Wentus into an innovative and sustainable film manufacturer with numerous trend-setting investments over a period of seven years. Now it is time to further develop the strengths we have built up together under the Trioworld umbrella and expand our market share. We would like to thank Egeria for the intensive and trusting cooperation and the great support throughout the years. 

Trioworld was founded in 1965 and has been owned by Altor Fund IV since 2018. Altor is one of the leading Nordic private equity firms focussed on building world-class companies. Driven by the continuous development of innovative and sustainable plastic film products, Trioworld is one of the market leaders in this segment with a turnover of 900 million euros and around 1,700 employees. The group is headquartered in Smålandsstenar, Sweden, with production and recycling sites in Sweden, Denmark, the Netherlands, France, the United Kingdom and Canada. The products and solutions are sold all over the world. 

Trioworld was the management team's preferred partner in the search for investors right from the start. We are very pleased to have found a partner in Trioworld that is a perfect fit for us and whose product portfolio is ideally complemented by Wentus. We are looking forward to working with a professional and ambitious team that we have already had the opportunity to get to know intensively during the sales process and whose management culture suits us well.

We are therefore particularly looking forward to the new developments in 2024 and would like to take this opportunity to wish you a successful, happy and healthy new year.
