NEW YORK, July 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Arsenal Capital Partners ("Arsenal"), a leading private equity firm that invests in middle-market specialty industrials and healthcare services companies, today announced that it has completed the sale of Inhance Technologies ("Inhance"), a provider of fluorine-based material technologies, to Aurora Capital Partners ("Aurora").  Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

Roy Seroussi, an Investment Partner of Arsenal Capital, added, "The company is well positioned to continue its track record of driving increased adoption of its best-in-class solutions, innovating new offerings, and growing in new geographies.  We are grateful to CEO Andy Thompson and his management team for the successful partnership and are pleased with what we were able to accomplish together." 

Andy Thompson, CEO and President of Inhance, said, "Inhance flourished under Arsenal's ownership, thanks to its support and collaborative approach.  It has been a pleasure working with the Arsenal team as we built the company and grew internationally.  We look forward to our new partnership with Aurora."

Bill Brown, co-founder of Inhance, said, "Monty and I are very pleased to have partnered with Arsenal.  The knowledge and resources the Arsenal team brought to the company will continue to grow the business rapidly beyond Arsenal's ownership."
