Axa Private Equity exits Gealan
Axa Private Equity has sold window manufacturer Gealan to Gimv portfolio company Halder after a six-year holding period.
The management and members of Gealan's advisory board will retain their shares.

Halder sold the company to Axa in 2004 for between €100 and 125m.
Oberkotzau-based Gealan was founded in 1920 and is a manufacturer and distributor of PVC window and door profiles. The company employs 1,200 people and has a turnover of €220m.
