IMAP advises Schuler on sale of a business unit to Accursia Capital and Navigator Capital

Schuler AG, one of the world's largest manufacturers of presses, has sold its tool & die business unit Body Panel to Accursia Capital and Navigator Capital. The business unit with locations in Göppingen and Weingarten was separated from Schuler Pressen GmbH and transferred to a new company along with its approx. 200 employees as part of a corporate carve-out (asset deal). With this transaction, Schuler continues on its path to focus on core businesses.

The business unit will be operated as Cartec Tooling GmbH under the umbrella of the holding company Deutsche Werkzeugbau (DWB). DWB already owns Gebr. RathWerkzeugbau in Kreuztal, Germany, which the investor group acquired from Linde+Wiemann in 2018. Cartec complements the group’s product range, with Gebr. RathWerkzeugbau specializing in high-strength structure parts for passenger cars, commercial and off-highway vehicles as well as non-automotive applications.

 

Accursia Capital and Navigator Capital, Munich, Germany

Headquartered in Munich, Germany, the buyers are experienced special situation investors with a number of transactions and corporate spin-offs on record. The vision of the investor group is the long-term development and expansion of an international industrial business with a focus on the manufacturing sector.
