High Road Capital Partners announced that its portfolio company U-C Coatings completed the acquisition of the assets of the stains and industrial coatings business of Eco Chemical, Inc., marking the company’s second acquisition under High Road’s ownership.
Founded in 1991, Seattle, Wa.-based Eco Chemical is a manufacturer of water-based stains and coatings used on pressure-treated wood and in the manufacturing of wood products such as fencing, decks, and exteriors.
“The acquisition of Eco Chemical deepens U-C Coatings’ position in the softwood market, adds the pressure-treating channel, and broadens U-C Coatings’ product offerings by introducing stains and coatings that capitalize on trends such as vintage wood,” said Jeff Goodrich, partner, High Road Capital Partners. “It also expands U-C Coatings’ geographic presence on the West Coast and gives customers on the East Coast access to new products for the pressure-treated lumber market.”
U-C Coatings’ acquisition of Eco Chemical closed on Sept. 9, 2019.
