Voith Plans to Acquire Toscotec and ELIN Motoren

January 3, 2020

Voith is planning another acquisition in the paper sector by acquiring 90% of the shares in Italian company Toscotec S.p.A. The corresponding purchase agreement was signed on December 20, 2019. Based in Lucca, this company is a globally active supplier of plant equipment, products and services for the paper industry. It focuses on tissue machines for manufacturing sanitary papers such as paper towels and paper napkins. The company generates approximately EUR 100 million in revenue with around 200 employees. The tissue segment is an area exhibiting above-average growth within the paper market. With this acquisition, Voith is able to further expand its position as a full-line supplier in all segments of the paper industry. In addition, Voith was able to sign a purchase agreement to take over 70% of shares in electric motor manufacturer ELIN Motoren GmbH on December 20, 2019. ELIN Motoren GmbH is a globally active, high-tech enterprise for electric motors and generators and provides customized solutions for industrial applications. Based in Weiz, Austria, the company has around 900 employees and generates revenues of approximately EUR 120 million. ELIN Motoren GmbH focuses on electric machinery, low- and medium-voltage motors and generators, especially for wind energy and decentralized energy generation. With its product portfolio, ELIN Motoren GmbH serves the target markets of wind energy, plastic, tunnel construction and mining, oil and gas, plant engineering, and power plants. The portfolio of ELIN Motoren GmbH is an outstanding addition to the existing industrial-drive solutions. It strengthens the position of Voith as a technology-independent supplier of electrical and mechanical drive systems. It is expected that the acquisition of the shares in both companies will be completed during the first six months of the 2020 calendar year,
