With the completion of the takeover, the insolvency proceedings of film manufacturer Treofan have come to an end. The Neunkirchen site will be retained and the company will operate under the name Polyopt GmbH in future.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Around five months after filing for insolvency proceedings under self-administration, film manufacturer Treofan has completed its restructuring. Business operations have been transferred to a new, insolvency-free company, which will operate under the name Polyopt GmbH in future. The new owner is the family-run Al Ghurair Group based in Dubai.<\/p>\n

The necessary antitrust authorisations have now been obtained, allowing the transaction to be completed. The production site in Neunkirchen and around 290 jobs (of the previous 465) will be retained. The takeover agreements with the new shareholder had already been signed in December 2025.<\/p>

The parties have agreed not to disclose the purchase price.<\/p>\n
