Reference: E001656 EXITS.co.uk are actively seeking Industrial Scrap Metal Processor business on behalf of a UK-based, Private Equity-owned acquirer. The acquirer is an established industrial scrap metal re-processor with operational sites in both Europe and the United States, and its leadership team has a strong track record in executing international acquisitions.

This acquisition strategy is part of their continued global expansion into complementary markets. Industry Focus: They are keen to acquire businesses involved in the processing, recycling, or trading of industrial scrap metals, with a particular interest in companies servicing the oil and gas, heavy industrial, or tubular metals sectors. Businesses operating in the reprocessing of ferrous and non-ferrous metals, dismantling, and end-of-life industrial equipment are of particular interest.

Target Market: They are looking for well-established businesses with experience in handling industrial scrap and associated services. For general scrap metal processing, targets should have strong supplier relationships, efficient processing capabilities, and a reliable customer base. For tubulars and oil & gas, the focus is on larger operations within Europe, where scale and sector expertise are essential.

Financial Performance: They are seeking scrap metal and oil & gas processors with an EBITDA in excess of £500,000, while for tubular recyclers in Europe, they are targeting companies with EBITDA greater than £10 million. Businesses demonstrating consistent revenue, operational efficiency, and scalable processing capabilities will be prioritised. Geographic Location: They will consider businesses globally for scrap metal processing, including opportunities in North America, Europe, and Asia.

For tubular-specific businesses, they are focusing on European-based operations with a strong regional or cross-border footprint.
