The business has recently undergone a recapitalisation with US PE house Clayton Dubilier & Rice, to fund continued international growth.
This transaction will provide Sidhil with further resources for expansion, whilst allowing Drive to access Sidhil’s product portfolio, extend its customer base in the U.K. and Europe, and expand its manufacturing capabilities.
