CIRCOR to buy Italy's Green Silence Group to expand industrial pumps
What's the deal? CIRCOR, a KKR portfolio company and global maker of flow control products, has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Green Silence Group S.p.A., an Italian provider of hydraulic pumps, electric motors, and engineering solutions. Financial terms were not disclosed. The deal is expected to close in the first quarter of 2027, subject to regulatory approvals.
What's the endgame? The acquisition folds in the capabilities of Green Silence brands Settima, Motive, and Spin — including three-screw and ultra-low-noise hydraulic pumps, electric motors, and rare-earth-free motor technologies. Green Silence will become part of CIRCOR's Industrial Pumps Europe business, and its staff will join CIRCOR's employee ownership program.
