据悉,阿克苏诺贝尔和巴斯夫公司周三表示,阿克苏诺贝尔公司已经同意斥资4.75亿欧元(5.307亿美元)收购巴斯夫旗下工业涂料业务。两家公司上周表示已经在讨论该交易。该交易将包括技术、专利、商标以及全球客户。巴斯夫旗下两套工业涂料生产装置,一套位于英国的迪赛德,另一套位于南非的范德拜尔帕克,将移交给阿克苏诺贝尔公司。该业务2015年实现营业收入约3亿欧元,主要向包括线圈、家俱箔和平板涂料、风能和一般性工业以及商业运输等终端应用领域供应产品。
该交易预计在2016年底完成,还有待常规的与雇员代表进行磋商以及包括管理机构批准在内的交易结束条件的达成。

AkzoNobel and BASF on Wednesday said that AkzoNobel has agreed to acquire BASF’s industrial coatings business for €475 million ($530.7 million). The companies said last week that they were discussing the transaction. The deal would include technologies, patents, and trademarks, as well as securing supply to customers worldwide. Two manufacturing plants, one at Deeside, UK; and the other at Vanderbijlpark, South Africa, will transfer to AkzoNobel. The business generated revenue of about €300 million in 2015 and supplies products for a number of end uses, including coil, furniture foil and panel coatings, wind energy and general industry, and commercial transport.
The planned transaction is expected to be completed end of 2016, subject to regular consultation with employee representatives and closing conditions, including regulatory approvals.
