British industrial fastening solutions provider Cooper Turner Beck (CTB) has been sold by Boston‑based private investment firm Watermill Group to European private equity firm Waterland Private Equity, with financial terms undisclosed. During Watermill’s ownership, CTB expanded from operations in 3 countries to 8, grew to 21 global facilities, doubled its workforce, and strengthened its position as a leading supplier of safety‑critical fastening systems in energy, power generation, and heavy industrial markets, with profitability and market share rising over multiple quarters—drawing strong interest from several potential buyers.
Following the acquisition, Waterland will support CTB in further expanding its global footprint and technical capabilities in industrial and energy sectors, setting the stage for organic growth and strategic acquisitions. Watermill Group said the transaction reflects its “grow and then transition” investment model, as it continues to focus on building market‑leading businesses that can find the right new partner at each stage of their development.
