MONTREAL - Protech Chemicals Ltd. will acquire the Seibert powder coatings unit of NPA Coatings, a subsidiary of Nippon Paints Japan. Protech will continue manufacturing operations in Cleveland, OH.
The deal is expected to close by mid-November 2013.

Privately-held Protech produces coatings under the Protech, Prolux, Oxyplast, Thermoclad and Innotek labels, with eight production facilities in the Americas and Europe and 15 licensees in South America, The Middle East and Asia. It says its powder coatings brands rank in the top five worldwide.
