Weil has advised Lone Star Fund XII, L.P., an affiliate of Lone Star Funds, on the acquisition of DOMO Engineered Materials (“DOMO EM”).

DOMO EM is a global leader in the development and production of polyamide-based engineered materials and its leading TECHNYL® brand supports a wide range of high-performance applications in the automotive, electrical and electronics, building and construction, consumer goods and industrial sectors.

The acquisition of DOMO EM follows Lone Star’s acquisition of RadiciGroup, with its High Performance Polymers and Specialty Chemicals business areas. The DOMO EM and RadiciGroup businesses will be combined and will then benefit from a broad and complementary product portfolio, expanded geographic reach and enhanced capabilities, providing the platform with industrial resiliency and new growth opportunities.

The cross-border Weil team was led by Private Equity partners Max Oppenheimer and Manuel-Peter Fringer, assisted by Barbara Jagersberger, Manuel Schmutzler, Christopher Maier, Sven Jelinek and Lucas Valio Ottowitz. The wider team included Antitrust partner Niklas Maydell and counsel Nicholas Barnabo, Restructuring partners Matthias Eiden and Céline Domenget-Morin, and associates Melina Husic and Marine Rieussec, Litigation counsel Konstantin Hoppe and Tax partners Benjamin Rapp and Oliver Walker and associates Daniel Reich and Sean Wright, as well as Weil’s specialist teams.
