Executive Summary
United Industries (UI) has sold its industrial components and systems division for £6.2 million ($8.9 million) to focus on its medtech sector interests. The disposal, assisted by consultancy NMB Heller, narrows its commitments down to three technical plastics businesses: orthopaedic implants company Perplas, Hi Tech House, which specialises in plastic hoses for medical applications and thermoset and thermoplastic bearings company Railcko. Sul Sahota, UI's new CEO, would not reveal the company's market performance but reported the company's prospects this year as 'interesting'.
