Ilej & Partners in cooperation with Karanovic & Partners and Havel & Partners have advised Czech industrial group MTX Group on its acquisition of Croatian company Omial Novi from Swiss-based Aluflexpack Group. Wolf Theiss, working with Willkie Farr & Gallagher, advised Aluflexpack.
According to Karanovic & Partners, the deal was a key condition for the European Commission’s approval of Constantia Flexibles’ entry into the Aluflexpack Group. The acquisition strengthens MTX Group’s position in the European packaging industry, particularly in the sterilizable feed and food packaging segment.
In 2024, Havel & Partners advised MTX Group on solar and wind Power development in Spain (as reported by CEE Legal Matters on July 5, 2024).
