This strategic acquisition will benefit both Metallisation and Kymera as the two companies combine their relative strengths to become a global leader in thermal spray applications and solutions.

Kymera, a company known for its specialty materials and surface technologies solutions, has acquired Metallisation Limited (“Metallisation”), a technology and automation leader in the thermal spray industry.

While the terms of the transaction were not disclosed, this acquisition will help strengthen Kymera’s position in the thermal spray sector. This is an important step forward for Kymera which will provide a range of comprehensive solutions to aerospace, medical, and industrial customers in its thermal spray portfolio.

“We will now be able to provide our aerospace customers with a vertically integrated offering that includes equipment, materials and application services. This complete package will undoubtedly benefit the growth and adaptation of the Company’s HaloJet™ product offering,” comments Barton White, CEO of Kymera.

Headquartered in Dudley, UK, Metallisation has been bringing the latest metal spray equipment and consumables innovations to market since 1922.

Metallisation will contribute to the growth of Kymera’s Surface Technologies business and its ability to deliver engineered solutions to global Tier 1 and OEM customers, specifically in the UK and the European region.

Needless to say, for this UK-based business, this acquisition also expands its product offerings, enhancing its market positioning and growth opportunities.

“We are extremely proud of Metallisation’s history and long-standing commitment to excellence in quality, customer service and engineering support,” Stuart Milton, Managing Director of Metallisation, remarks. “We have no doubt that under Kymera’s leadership, we will be able to not only continue offering great products and service to our customers, but also elevate our offerings and unlock significant growth opportunities. We are excited to be joining a team dedicated to innovation and collaboration.”
