"We are very excited about this transaction, which brings together two highly successful plastic injection molding manufacturers, Craftech and California-based BCB," said Chintan Meher, Managing Director of M&A at Sage Park. "In total, the two companies will operate more than 250,000 square feet of manufacturing space across the United States and Mexico. This acquisition adds state-of-the-art medical clean-room manufacturing capabilities to our platform, allowing us to provide a more comprehensive customer experience and a broader range of products and services."
Combined, the businesses will have more than 50,000 square feet of manufacturing capacity in Tijuana, Mexico, approximately 190,000 square feet in the United States, and over 55,000 square feet of cleanroom manufacturing capabilities, supporting a diverse range of end markets, including medical, industrial, sporting goods, automotive, and other specialty applications.

We are excited to enter this new partnership which will create strategic opportunities for our next phase and long-term growth plans," said Ali Debei, BCB's President.
