Seche Environnement acquired a majority stake in Mecomer. This transaction marks the group's third international acquisition within a single year, following entries into Peru and South Africa. The deal was structured to allow the founder's son and current manager, Stefano Ferrante, to retain a minority interest and continue leading the company's operations. The strategic rationale for the acquisition is to establish a solid industrial base in Italy, a key European market for hazardous waste, while leveraging the target's specialized laboratory and logistical capabilities to serve the group's pan-European industrial clients.

MECOMER, which reported an EBITDA margin of LOGIN in 2018, is valued in this transaction at an EV/EBITDA multiple of LOGINcurrently observed in the Energy & Utilities sector.
