New York, NY. Nixon Peabody LLP is pleased to have represented Solenis, a provider of sustainable solutions for water-intensive industries, in the company’s acquisition of Lilleborg, which provides cleaning solutions for food and beverage customers.
Lilleborg, based in Oslo, Norway, and founded nearly 200 years ago, is a leading company in the Norwegian commercial market and has been a long-term partner with Diversey, a Solenis company. The acquisition allows Diversey to expand into the Norwegian water treatment market with a direct channel, offering customers an expanded portfolio of solutions across the food and beverage industries.
“It was a pleasure working with Solenis and facilitating this important transaction,” said Kevin Grant, co-leader of Nixon Peabody’s M&A and Corporate Transactions team and the partner who led the firm’s deal team. “We look forward to seeing results of the acquisition in the years to come.”
In addition to Grant, the Nixon Peabody deal team included partners Daniel Belostock, David Martland, associate Yasmin Hayre, and counsel Shaziah Singh. Law firm Hjort served as Norway-based counsel to Solenis for the transaction.
