CLIENT
Leigh Delaware Holdings, LLC ., an affiliate company of Leigh Fibers, Inc., is a family owned business headquartered in New England. Leigh Fibers, Inc. is headquartered in Wellford, SC, near the center of the Greenville-Spartanburg area. As a fourth-generation manufacturer of recycled fibers, the company is one of the world’s largest reprocessors of natural, synthetic and specialty fibers.

SITUATION
Leigh sought the ability to broaden and deepen their resources through an acquisition of synergistic capabilities and expertise in supply and trading. ICE Recycling was founded in 2008, as a post-industrial nylon recycling company.

ICE now services a broad array of industrial businesses, providing engineering and program services, making those companies ‘LANDFILL FREE’. ICE recycles a large assortment of materials including: textiles, plastics, metals, cardboard, and E-waste.

ENGAGEMENT
G2 Capital Advisors served as the exclusive financial advisor to Leigh in facilitating the acquisition of ICE Recycling. G2 Capital Advisors led the acquisition, which was accomplished through our buy-side advisory services.

OUTCOME
The transaction was successfully completed in June of 2014 through a sale of the assets of ICE Recycling to Leigh Delaware Holdings. Larry Gay will remain with the sale and become the President of ICE Recycling.
