Vancouver, BC – April 16th, 2024 – Talius, Canada’s premier provider of high-quality rollshutters and screens, is thrilled to announce it has attracted new investments from two distinguished private equity groups. This investment is earmarked for the development of new products, enhancement of inventory levels, and bolstering of customer service capabilities.
During 2022 and 2023 Top Rollshutters dba Talius went through a period of supply chain and financial problems, so Talius’ major shareholders decided to restructure the employees, assets, manufacturing operations and brand into a new legal entity which is called Talius Group. It is this new legal entity which has received the new investment.
The Talius team are committed to continue delivering dependable solutions and unmatched customer service. The substantial investment from Dovesco and Gestalt Capital underscores strong confidence in Talius’ strategic vision, operational resilience, and capability to thrive amidst adversity.
Dovesco is a diversified investment group based in Belgium, manages assets exceeding 1 billion USD. Originating from one of Europe’s most successful family-owned manufacturing conglomerates, Dovesco’s investment philosophy is highly congruent with Talius’ objectives and ethos. They collaborate with entrepreneurs and management teams to drive sustainable growth both organically and through judicious acquisitions. Dovesco’s investment acumen is evident from their impressive portfolio of more than 30 transactions in recent times, focusing on profitable entities with dominant market presences.
Gestalt Capital is a Canadian private equity group supported by family offices. Gestalt Capital concentrates on private enterprises with a long term holding strategy.
Gregory De Clerck, CEO of Dovesco, expressed enthusiasm about the new investment in Talius, stating, “Our decision to augment our capital commitment was swift. Our confidence in Talius’ leadership, innovative products, and the burgeoning North American market underpins our continued investment.”
Frank Christiaens, CEO of Talius, reflected on the partnership, “Securing the support from Dovesco and Gestalt is a testament to our company’s potential. These investments will empower Talius to refine our offerings and operations, now that we are backed by robust financial resources and a visionary trajectory. We now have not only the best products and the best team, but also the most solid financial backing of any player in our industry.”
Dovesco and Gestalt will join the board of Talius Group, which will allow the management team to leverage their many years of experience to ensure world class governance and execution.
