Munich, 29 August 2025 - AEQUITA SE & Co. KGaA, a global industrial
group headquartered in Munich, Germany, has acquired the European needle
roller bearing (NRB) business from JTEKT Group. Serving automotive,
industrial, and aerospace & defense customers, the business generates
revenues of more than EUR 100 million, employing a workforce of around 1,200
across its four production sites in Germany, France, and the Czech Republic.
Following a strategic review, JTEKT decided to divest the business to focus on
its core markets and operations. Based on its profound industry know-how,
carve-out expertise, and thorough industrial concept, AEQUITA was selected as
the partner of choice by JTEKT.
Christoph Himmel, Managing Partner at AEQUITA, said: "We would like to thank
JTEKT for entrusting us with the further development of the business, which is
agreat addition to our automotive portfolio. Over the last couple of months,
we have worked closely with JTEKT to ensure a seamless transition. Looking
ahead, we, together with the skilled and experienced employees, will build on
the company's great reputation, delivering best-in-class roller bearing
solutions to our blue-chip customers."
The transaction was completed on 1 August 2025.
