One Rock Completes Acquisition of Distrupol

US private equity group One Rock Capital Partners has completed its acquisition of UK plastics distributor Distrupol from US chemicals distributor Univar – the plans were announced in late January. Financial details of the deal were not disclosed.

The investor plans to integrate the plastics distributor into its new holding called GPD Companies, which also includes Nexeo Solutions, the parent company of Nexeo Plastics, businesses acquired in March 2019. Distrupol will continue to operate independently, however.

A leading European distributor of thermoplastic polymers and elastomers, with more than 1,300 customers across 13 countries, Distrupol’s product range is certified and approved in industries such as automotive, medical, food and electrical goods.
