We have advised Lumson S.p.A. (Lumson), a leading group in the design, production, and commercialisation of innovative primary packaging solutions for the skincare sector, on the sale of its subsidiary Marino Belotti S.r.l. (Marino Belotti) to the private equity fund, Alcedo SGR (Alcedo).
Founded in 1975 by Cav. Remo Moretti and now led by Matteo Moretti, Lumson operates across six facilities in Italy, with branches in France, the US, Spain, Germany, and Poland. The group is renowned for its innovative, primary packaging solutions, particularly within airless systems, dispensing systems, glass bottles, plastic bottles, and lipstick packaging. With a consolidated revenue exceeding €140m and over 600 employees, Lumson continues to be a significant player in the skincare packaging industry.
With over 30 years of experience, Marino Belotti specialises in the design, development, and production of premium, primary packaging solutions for the prestige and masstige segments of the cosmetics industry. Marino Belotti has established strong relationships with leading Italian and international cosmetic brands as well as key Italian formulators, offering a wide and diverse product portfolio recognised for its quality and high customisation potential, including additional finishing and decoration services.
Alcedo, along with two managers from Marino Belotti, acquired 100% of the company's capital from Lumson. The managers, CEO and Head of Operations, will retain a minority stake and continue their operational roles, aiming to drive the company's growth.
Through this transaction, we have supported Lumson on its strategy, focusing all the group’s resources on its core skincare packaging business and strengthening the robust growth trajectory it has embarked upon.
