This planned transaction marks a significant step toward the sustainable securing and further development of the Kelheim site. The new owner intends to invest specifically in production infrastructure, efficiency improvements, and innovation to strengthen the long-term competitiveness of the Kelheim location. The company’s strategy will continue to prioritize high product quality, while also focusing on reliability of supply, which has been consistently strengthened following the challenges of recent years.

As part of the successful strategic realignment implemented since the beginning of the year, Kelheim Fibres will increasingly focus on its trilobal hygiene fiber Galaxy®, renowned for its outstanding functional properties and sustainable material base. The product portfolio is further complemented by high-performance viscose fibers used in demanding applications, including hygiene products. All Kelheim Fibres products are biodegradable and strictly certified.

The completion of the transaction is subject to standard suspensive conditions, including the securing of robust, long-term supply agreements with key business partners. Kelheim Fibres and DUBAG Group are in close dialogue with all relevant stakeholders, particularly customers, to create the conditions for a successful transition to the new owner and actively shape the company’s future.

DUBAG Group brings extensive experience in successfully managing complex corporate transitions. A recent example is the acquisition of TRUMPF’s 3D printing business division by LEO III Fonds, where trust was restored among uncertain customers in a challenging environment, and a future-oriented realignment of the business was established. With this expertise and a clear focus on sustainable value creation, DUBAG Group is a reliable partner for the next phase of Kelheim Fibres’ development.
