Business Wire

H.I.G. Capital (“H.I.G.”), a leading global alternative asset manager with over €34 billion of equity capital under management, announced today that one of its portfolio companies, UK -based Vernacare, has carved-out the Infection Prevention business from Frontier Medical Group, including the brands Sharpsafe®, Clinisafe® and eXchange™. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

The acquired businesses are industry-leaders in the infection prevention market providing an extensive range of sharps and clinical waste disposal solutions. Sharpsafe® was the world’s first purpose-designed plastic sharps container. With a customer base across the UK and Europe, the business operates from its site in Blackwood, Wales.

James Mitchell, Principal at H.I.G.

H.I.G. is looking forward to working with Frontier Medical’s Infection Prevention business which is highly complementary to Vernacare’s existing presence in the clinical Infection Prevention sector. We believe the combination will strengthen Vernacare’s market position and support an ambitious organic growth strategy; we will also continue to pursue similar accretive acquisitions in the sector across the UK and internationally over the coming years.”

James Steele, Chief Executive of Vernacare, added, “Frontier’s Infection Prevention business and Vernacare fit very well together, with a common focus on best practice within Infection Prevention, and together, will be even better placed to help improve Infection Prevention standards within UK and overseas healthcare systems.’’
