The New Drumless Washing Machine

A German specialty supplier of mineral-based sorbents and filter media for environmental applications is up for sale. The company has developed a patented technology platform that can be used as a cost-effective alternative to activated carbon in industrial filtration and wastewater treatment. The product is based on a mineral absorbent material with a significantly increased active surface area and enables the effective removal of micropollutants such as PFAS, heavy metals, pesticides, pharmaceutical residues, and hormones. Laboratory and test series demonstrate removal efficiencies comparable to those of activated carbon, while offering a significantly lower cost profile and additional advantages in terms of handling and recyclability. A key growth driver is the tightening of regulations in the field of water treatment, particularly the introduction of the fourth treatment stage in wastewater treatment plants. In Germany alone, this results in potential annual savings of approximately €135 million compared to existing activated carbon solutions. The production value chain is largely established, while commercial scaling and market penetration are still in their early stages. In addition to wastewater treatment, potential applications exist in flue gas and emissions purification. The company thus offers an attractive platform for strategic investors who have market and sales access and can drive the industrialization and scaling of the technology.

The company is a specialized online retailer of replacement parts and accessories for fully automatic coffee machines and coffee makers. The product range includes a wide selection of original and compatible replacement parts for numerous popular brands and machine models. These include components such as brew groups, boiler heaters, water pumps, gaskets, grinders, milk frothers/milk carafes, as well as other technical components and many small parts. In addition, the company offers maintenance products such as cleaning tablets, milk system cleaners, descalers, and water filters, which contribute to the upkeep, hygiene, and longevity of coffee machines. Furthermore, the company carries coffee products as well as select coffee machines and accessories. The company operates its own warehouse with thousands of well-organized replacement parts. The business can be operated anywhere in Germany, regardless of location. Since the warehouse is very well organized and the parts are stackable for transport, the entire inventory—including shelves and IT equipment—can be loaded onto 1 to 2 trucks very quickly and transported anywhere. This business can be particularly attractive for existing repair shops that want to expand their reach through mail-order sales and keep replacement parts immediately available in their own warehouse for repairs. The costs of purchasing replacement parts for a repair shop can be significantly reduced thanks to low purchase prices. Sales are conducted exclusively online via an e-commerce store and email orders, with services such as technical support via email, processing of spare parts inquiries, and fast shipping. The focus is on a broad product range, fair prices, and reliable order fulfillment. Approximately 800 to 1,000 orders are processed and shipped each month. The level of automation in processing incoming orders is very high thanks to appropriate interfaces between the inventory management system, the online store, and shipping and payment service providers. A maximum of 4 hours per day is required for shipping processing.

Following a period of strong growth, the group was systematically streamlined and operationally realigned. Processes were optimized, costs were sustainably reduced, and structures were made more efficient. For the next 12–24 months, the focus will clearly be on profitability rather than maximum growth. At the same time, we are making targeted investments in the further expansion of our core brands and in the sustainable growth of EBITDA.

Our client is a medium-sized construction company with a long history and a strong regional presence. Since its founding, the company has evolved from a traditional construction firm into a modern general contractor specializing in building construction. Its operational focus is on challenging turnkey new-construction projects as well as the strategically important area of building renovation. The service portfolio includes, in particular, residential and commercial buildings, commercial real estate, social facilities, as well as hotel and vacation apartment complexes. In addition, the company carries out conversion, modernization, and renovation projects on existing buildings. A key differentiator is its professional organizational structure. The company has dedicated departments for cost estimation, BIM, project management, turnkey construction, building renovation, work planning, quality assurance, lean management, controlling, administration, and corporate digitization. As a result, the company is significantly more focused on project management, planning, and coordination than a traditional, trade-based construction firm. Of particular note is the company’s existing digital expertise. The BIM method is used in cost estimation and project planning to digitally model construction projects at an early stage, identify interfaces, and plan costs and schedules with greater reliability. In addition, the company employs lean management on its construction sites. The company enjoys a strong reputation in the regional market as a reliable, transparent, and collaborative contractual partner. Its market position is further bolstered by several awards, including recognition as a Top Innovator, Employer of the Future, and Construction Company of the Year. Long-standing relationships with investors, project developers, clients, and subcontractors form an important foundation for its stable market position. In 2025, the company employed approximately 50 people. The workforce consists of qualified construction managers, project managers, cost estimators, and BIM specialists, as well as commercial and administrative staff. A well-established second tier of management and low turnover in key positions create a stable operational foundation for a successor. The current order backlog is a key value driver. According to the borrower’s report, the company has a weighted order backlog of approximately 194 million EUR through 2029. Based on this, the calculated average annual revenue amounts to approximately 48.5 million EUR. For 2026, the plan calls for total revenue of approximately 52.8 million EUR. The sustainably derived EBITDA is approximately 970 TEUR. The main operating premises are privately owned by the shareholder and are leased by the company. They include, among other things, office space, a construction yard, and a warehouse, thereby providing a functional foundation for the company’s current size and its future operational development. The sale to an external successor is being pursued for retirement reasons and is a high priority. The goal is to ensure the long-term continuity of this established company and to consistently leverage its existing growth potential. Opportunities exist, in particular, in expanding the existing building renovation segment, strengthening sales and brand positioning, utilizing BIM expertise, and further professionalizing corporate management. The ideal successor should think entrepreneurially, possess social awareness, and cultivate a collaborative leadership style. A background in construction engineering is advantageous but not mandatory. An entrepreneur with a business-oriented background may also be considered, provided they respect the existing corporate culture and work with the team to further develop the company.
