and commission a fully integrated carbon fiber process line. Harper was chosen after an open public tender as the technical and implementation partner for engineering, process equipment, installation and startup of the line which will support operation under multiple precursor platforms. The custom-designed line incorporates Harper’s proprietary multi-flow oxidation oven technology, advanced LT and HT slot furnaces rated for 1000°C and 2000°C respectively, pre and post-treatment fiber conditioning, gas treatment and handling, and material transport systems. Harper focuses on holistic designs to link the process steps, ensuring optimal performance. For more information, visit: www.harperintl.com. Gurit has signed a contract to acquire the Spanish balsa material producer Balseurop. The transaction is divided into a purchase of a majority stake now, followed by performance-based installments over the next years. The total purchase price is approximately EUR 20 million. The fast growing and successful privately owned Spanish company operates its own processing factory in Ecuador. The company is expected to exceed sales of CHF 30 million in 2011, continuing its dynamic growth of the past years. Having already
built a trading position in Balsa wood over the past two years, Gurit now concludes with this acquisition the strategic expansion of its core material offering for the wind energy and marine markets. Balseurop, headquartered in Fontcoberta/Spain, has been rapidly growing since its strategic repositioning in 2005. The company buys raw balsa wood from many different local farmers in Ecuador. This raw material is then processed by some 160 people into Balsaflex in Balseurop’s recently built, state-of-the art efficient factory in Ecuador. This core material is well-known in the market for its quality. The acquisition enables Gurit to fill the last gap in its rapidly built and now completed core material offering. It also allows Gurit to combine Balsa wood with its other core materials to supply the global customer base in the Wind Energy and Marine markets with multi-material structural core kits. With this acquisition, Gurit is now uniquely positioned to supply a full range of prepregs, all relevant core materials and kits, adhesives, and turbine blade moulds to the wind energy market and – for the most part – to the global marine market.
