Start of CMA Merger Investigation: The CMA is investigating the anticipated acquisition by Carpenter Co. of the engineered foams business of Recticel NV/SA
The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) is considering whether it is or may be the case that this transaction, if carried into effect, will result in the creation of a relevant merger situation under the merger provisions of the Enterprise Act 2002 and, if so, whether the creation of that situation may be expected to result in a substantial lessening of competition within any market or markets in the United Kingdom for goods or services.
