Valmet has entered into an agreement to acquire Severn Group (“Severn”), a well-established industrial valve company, from Bluewater, a UK-based private equity firm. The acquisition covers all three Severn divisions: Severn Glocon, ValvTechnologies, and LB Bentley. Severn serves process industries globally and has over a 60-year track record of delivering specialized flow control solutions across the most demanding applications. Severn’s strong technologies, installed base and customer relationships with a diverse set of the world’s largest blue-chip industrial companies support Valmet’s growth strategy beyond its traditional core biomaterials business.
