Livingstone advises Jiangsu Asia-Pacific Light Alloy Technology Co. Ltd. on the acquisition of ALUnited Group

Livingstone is pleased to announce that it has advised Jiangsu Asia-Pacific Light Alloy Technology Co. Ltd. (“APALT”) on the acquisition of the ALUnited Group from private equity firm Fidelium Partners.

ALUnited, with production sites in Tønder, Denmark, and Louviers, France, specializes in the development and manufacturing of high-quality aluminum components for the automotive industry. Its product portfolio includes battery and engine carrier systems for electric vehicles, crash management systems, and brake pedals. The French site is also equipped with in-house extrusion capabilities for upstream aluminum components. Previously part of the Benteler Group, the two plants were carved out and further developed into the independent ALUnited Group under Fidelium’s ownership.

Through this acquisition, APALT strengthens its presence in the European market and establishes downstream manufacturing capabilities in close proximity to leading premium OEMs. Integrating ALUnited’s activities enables APALT to strategically expand its value chain and product offering in a highly dynamic growth segment.

”We are proud to have supported APALT in this strategically important acquisition. The transaction demonstrates how international industrial groups can further develop their value chains in Europe through targeted acquisitions. We sincerely thank the APALT team for their trust and the highly collaborative partnership throughout the entire process,” adds Baoshan Bao, Partner at Livingstone Partners Düsseldorf.
