Permira acquired BPL from its sole shareholder, Tiancheng International Investment (TII), which had owned the business since 2016. The acquisition was part of a larger strategic plan to merge BPL's robust US collection network and specialized rare disease portfolio with Kedrion. By detaching BPL from its Chinese parent company, Permira allowed the business to refocus on its core UK and US markets. The combination created massive synergies in fractionation capacity and plasma supply, solving long-standing raw material bottlenecks for the UK-based manufacturing facilities.
