• The Alltub Group is today the world leader in the manufacture and sale of collapsible aluminium tubes. Historically speaking, Alltub was created as a result of a carve-out from the Alcan-Péchiney Group in May 2005 by four managers, backed by 21 Central Partners. In just two years, the managers have restructured the group and developed a growth project. In 2007, Alltub underwent a second MBO in which the managers became the majority owners.

The Group offers three kinds of products:
- collapsible tubes for “aggressive” or fragile products (cosmetics, pharmacy, agri-food industry),
- aerosols (household products),
- cartridges (industrial and domestic products).

INVOLMENT OF CAPZANINE IN 2008

• Nature of the deal: External growth


• Convinced of the group’s development potential, Capzanine arranged “growth mezzanine financing” to fund the acquisition of the company Industrial Santa Clara, Mexico’s second-biggest manufacturer of flexible aluminium tubes. This financing also facilitated the implementation of an investment plan to increase the group’s production capacity.
