Exxelia joins Heico Corporation group

Exxelia is turning a page in its shareholder history and should join the American group HEICO Corporation via its subsidiary Electronic Technologies Group (ETG).

The transaction will be carried out with IK Partners, majority shareholder of Exxelia since 2015, and should take place before the end of the first quarter of 2023.

 

Laurans A. Mendelson, HEICO's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, along with Victor H. Mendelson, HEICO's Co-President and CEO of its Electronic Technologies Group, commented, "We are ecstatic that such a fine company, with its remarkable team members, management and products, will be part of HEICO, and we look forward to welcoming all of Exxelia's great people to the HEICO family. While furthering HEICO's strategy of expanding our already impressive range of mission-critical and Hi-Rel components for the most demanding applications, Exxelia also provides HEICO with added broad geographic and product diversity, including in the important European market."

 

Paul Maisonnier, CEO of Exxelia, commented, "We are excited to embark on a new stage of development with HEICO. We really appreciate the values of the Mendelson Family, which match perfectly those of Exxelia. Our goal to develop Exxelia into a world leader in Hi-Rel passive components and sub-systems for harsh environments, serving the aeronautic, defense, space and medical markets will be accelerated under the HEICO umbrella. Together we will strengthen our innovation and operational capabilities and accelerate our internationalisation strategy. We thank IK for their support over the past years, which has enabled us to establish a solid platform to support our ambitions for global growth."

 

Dan Soudry, Managing Partner at IK Partners and Advisor to the IK VII Fund, and Diki Korniloff, Partner at IK Partners, added: "As shareholders of Exxelia since 2015, we are very pleased to have been able to support its very talented management team through the various stages of transformation, structuring and growth of the Company, doubling its employee base to more than 2,100 people and leading to a strong increase in investment in R&D and in its manufacturing footprint. Notably, we believe that HEICO is an excellent home for Exxelia given that they share common values and we are very pleased HEICO is acquiring Exxelia. We'd like to take this opportunity to wish the team and HEICO all the very best for the future."

Exxelia adopts laser marking for its products

Laser marking is part of the GREEN approach that Exxelia has recently implemented for its products. Indeed, it allows the reduction of the presence of chemicals in Exxelia magnetic products, currently, identified by ink marking which requires the use of protective varnish in order to resist the chemical cleaning agents used by our customers. Moreover, it allows a GREEN production with the drastic reduction of consumables (generally chemical) linked to ink marking and thus the need for recycling, for less impact on the environment.         Exxelia is part of an eco-responsible approach with many industrial advantages, namely Indelible marking => optimal traceability (even on the smallest products), permanent and of constant quality. Resistance to corrosion and heat. Resistance to chemical agents => no need to use protective varnish on our markings. No more use of consumables (compared to ink marking).
