Diversey to Acquire Diamond Cleaning Pad Owner Twister

December 12, 2017

Diversey has announced it has entered into an agreement to acquire Twister Holding AB and its assets for an undisclosed amount from private equity firm Polaris.

Diversey is a global supplier of hygiene and cleaning solutions that integrate chemicals, floor care machines, tools and equipment with a wide range of technology-based value-added services, food safety services and water and energy management.

Twister, headquartered in Söderköping, Sweden, is the owner of Twister™, a patented system for daily floor cleaning using floor pads impregnated with billions of microscopic diamonds which clean and polish the floor mechanically. Twister™ is a completely chemical free system that works with water only.

Diversey has acquired Twister to extend its market leadership, to strengthen its full value proposition and offer integrated solutions between chemicals, TASKI machines, robotics and tools at the lowest total cost of ownership (TCO) to their customers globally.

The transaction is expected to close in 2017.
