FORUM acquires 100% of Innseals Dichtungstechnik

FORUM Family Office ("FORUM") has acquired 100% of the shares in Innseals Dichtungstechnik GmbH, based in Ried/Innkreis, Austria, via its industry holding company FORUM Industrie & Service GmbH.

‍
Innseals was founded in 2016 by Daniel Geroldinger to develop and distribute specialty gaskets for demanding industrial applications. Today, the company is a problem solver for customized seals based on high-performance materials. Innseals' gaskets are used in a wide variety of applications - including in the semiconductor industry, food industry and hydrogen electrolysis. Small and medium-sized series are typical. The company generates a turnover of around € 3 million and has been growing at a double-digit rate for many years. The jointly developed continuation concept provides for a continuation of the corporate strategy in all key aspects. In particular, all employees and the location will be retained. Growth is to be at least maintained, and the company will continue to expand its marketing and sales activities and strengthen its internationalization. Mr. Geroldinger will hand over the management of the company to a successor with a technical background from 1.9.2025, thus maintaining the focus on problem-solving expertise. He will continue to support his successor as a consultant in the coming years to ensure a complete transfer of know-how, his comment:

"After 10 years of building up the company, I have chosen the FORUM Group as the purchaser and strategic partner for Innseals Dichtungstechnik GmbH. The Forum Group with its principles (decentralized, entrepreneurial, long-term) and the entrepreneurial knowledge in combination with the specialized product and industry knowledge of the Innseals team will successfully take the company to the next level and ensure the further growth of Innseals Dichtungstechnik GmbH in my interest."
