Speciality chemical manufacturer John Hogg Technical Solutions is acquiring fellow UK company Avocet Dye and Chemical, a market leading manufacturer of textile flame retardants, dyes and high-performance auxiliaries.

The acquisition marks a significant milestone in Manchester-based John Hogg’s growth strategy, enhancing its product portfolio and expanding its market reach within the speciality dyes and chemicals business segment.

The addition of Brighouse-based Avocet’s dye and flame-retardant technology, including the well established Cetaflam brand, enables John Hogg to offer a more comprehensive range of colour solutions across various industries.

“We are thrilled to welcome Avocet into the John Hogg family,” said Philip Double, CEO of John Hogg Technical Solutions. “This acquisition aligns with our commitment to growth and investment in both our product range and our market reach. Avocet’s innovative products and fantastic team will complement our existing capabilities and help drive our Speciality Dyes and Chemicals business unit forwards to a brighter future.”

Working together, both companies will ensure a smooth transition and continued delivery of high-quality products and services to global customers.
