AMI, a foam fabricator serving the medical market, filed for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code on July 2.
UFP's purchase of selected assets of AMI was approved by the Bankruptcy Court on September 2.
"We are very pleased with this transaction," said R. Jeffrey Bailly, Chairman & CEO of UFP Technologies. "With its ISO 13485 Quality Certification, FDA certification, and clean room capabilities, AMI's facility is ideally suited to meeting the needs of our medical customers. It also strengthens our position on the west coast; with the Rancho Dominguez plant just 85 miles from our Ventura facility, we will also have the option to increase efficiencies by combining these two California operations."
"Following our acquisition of selected assets of Foamade Industries and E.N. Murray Company, AMI is our third transaction this year," Bailly continued, "demonstrating the exciting acquisition growth opportunities that exist for UFP Technologies."
