Semperit finalizes sale of the remaining medical business
Vienna, July 1, 2024 – Semperit has completed the sale of the medical
business and transferred the remaining production and packaging of
surgical gloves to the buyer of the entire medical business, the Southeast
Asian Harps Global, as agreed. Combined under the discontinued operations
“Surgical Operations”, these activities were most recently carried out as
contract manufacturing for Harps Global.
“After we had already sold and handed over the majority of the glove
business to Harps in 2023, we have now been able to place the remaining
part in the hands of the new, responsible owner early and terminate the
contract manufacturing. This means that Semperit has exited the glove
business completely, and we are concentrating 100% on implementing our
growth strategy as a leading specialist in elastomer products for
industry,” says Semperit’s CEO Karl Haider.
The second and final closing of the sale of the medical business took
place with effect from June 30, 2024, and comprised the sale of the
operation for the contract manufacturing of surgical gloves in Wimpassing,
Austria, and the 100% stake in the Hungarian company Sempermed Kft., which
carries out their packaging in Sopron, Hungary. The sales price (cash and
debt free) amounts to EUR 7 million and is subject to the usual price
adjustment mechanisms.
