08/07/2025 - Supplier of performance materials and solutions in the molten metal, infrastructure and specialty chemical industries Opta Group LP, portfolio company of Speyside Equity Advisors, has acquired the m-tec Group in Wesel, Germany.
The company will now operate under the name OPTA Wesel GmbH & Co. KG. The acquisition will allow Opta Group to deliver regional access to high-quality desulfurization solutions.
