OpenGate Capital portfolio company, Duraco Specialty Tapes, a manufacturer of pressure sensitive tapes and specialty materials, announced that it has acquired 3 Sigma, a custom provider of pressure sensitive products and specialty coatings from Brixey & Meyer Capital. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
Headquartered in Troy, OH, USA, 3 Sigma has a wide range of coating technologies and in-house adhesive formulation capabilities. 3 Sigma has an established track record of providing high-quality custom products to customers in high-growth health and beauty, flexible packaging, food and beverage, and medical end-use markets.
