Industrials
For 3i, the Industrials & Energy sector encompasses a diverse range of activities, from chemicals through to transport and logistics.
Our experience is equally broad: from our investment in Radius Systems, a market leading UK manufacturer of thermoplastic pipe systems, to our successful exit from ABX Logistics, one of Europe’s largest freight forwarding businesses.The companies of greatest interest to 3i operate in six areas:
- Automotive
- Chemicals
- Construction & Building Products
- Electronics & Electricals
- Industrial Manufacturing
- Oil, Gas & Power
We have an outstanding track record of investment within the Industrials & Energy sector and we look to invest in primarily international businesses with strong positions in stable, growing markets. We work in partnership to optimise performance, delivering growth and realising full potential in a challenging market.
By working closely with management teams, we can apply the value of 3i’s knowledge and global networks to help companies streamline their operations, identify and execute value creation opportunities, and diversify their international presence. In this way, businesses will not only survive these difficult times but will emerge from this period leaner and fitter, with a robust platform for future growth.
