Techmer PM LLC, a global leader in polymer materials design based in Clinton, Tenn., announced the acquisition of OptiColor Inc., a full-service color compounder specializing in color concentrates and masterbatches for critical applications.
OptiColor was established in Huntington Beach, Calif., in 1995. OptiColor’s expertise lies in compounding custom concentrates, pre-colored materials and specialty dyes into transparent, translucent, opaque, clear, white and color products for critical applications, including performance eyewear, military lasers and sustainable lighting solutions.
“We are thrilled to welcome OptiColor to the Techmer PM team. Their commitment to quality materials, customer service, and exceptional talent will bolster Techmer’s capabilities in the concentrate and compounds market and expand our technology portfolio,” says Mike McHenry, CEO of Techmer PM.
“This acquisition is a clear demonstration of Techmer’s unwavering commitment to the plastics markets. Through investments in cutting-edge solutions, high-quality people and expanded customer service, we are dedicated to creating a stronger Techmer to support customers and grow our business,” says Jon Rogers, vice president of global sales and marketing of Techmer PM.
Jennifer Bryan, who has been with OptiColor since 2012 and became president and CEO when she acquired the company in 2021, has been in the industry for more than 30 years. She will join Techmer PM as vice president of technical sales for optics, laser, lighting and sheet.
“Joining forces with Techmer PM will allow us to leverage their extensive expertise and resources. Together, we can continue to drive innovation and deliver exceptional solutions to our customers that require consistent, superior quality and customer service,” says Bryan.
The acquisition deal closed on October 1. The terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
The addition of OptiColor follows Techmer PM’s acquisition of Advanced Color Technologies last year.
