22 Dec Severn Group to be acquired by Valmet Corporation

(Oilandgaspress) Severn Group, one of Britain’s longest-established valve manufacturers, today announced that it has been acquired for $480 million dollars by Valmet, a Finland-listed global industrial leader. Contour Holdings International Limited, known as “Severn Group,” is the holding corporation for Severn Glocon, ValvTechnologies and LB Bentley. This transition follows a successful global expansion strategy led by its largest investor, Bluewater, and marks an exciting new phase in the company’s growth journey.
The global expansion of manufacturing locations in India and USA, positions Severn as a complementary fit within Valmet’s existing footprint.

Under Bluewater’s strategic guidance, Severn Group transformed from a predominantly upstream oil and gas business (73% in 2020) into a diversified global industrial company, expanding into over 12 new sectors and quadrupling earnings.

“We are delighted to join Valmet and begin a new chapter for Severn Group. Bluewater’s support has been instrumental in shaping the business we are today, and we now look forward to the future with confidence and momentum,” said Perttu Louhiluoto, CEO of Severn Group.

The acquisition is expected to be completed during Q2 2026
