Company News - November 28th, 2025
Photocat A/S has acquired a portfolio of solid CMA-based de-icing assets from Alumichem A/S for a consideration in the low single-digit million DKK range, with full IP and commercial rights transferred to Photocat as of 28 November 2025. This will significantly strengthening Photocat’s Ice & Dust Away product line and expanding its offering within environmentally responsible winter-maintenance solutions.
The acquired package includes marketing material, product formulations, development know-how, ingredient lists and technical specifications. These assets provide Photocat with a strong platform to finalize and commercialize a solid de-icing product that complements the company’s existing liquid solutions.
Photocat aims to complete remaining development and documentation work during early 2026.
The new solid de-icer will carry the same strong environmental profile as the existing Ice & Dust Away line and is designed to meet customer demand in segments where a solid product is required due to regulatory or operational constraints.
Initial market dialogues indicate a clear opportunity in the segment for a solid, environmentally friendly de-icer with performance characteristics aligned with Ice & Dust Away.
“This acquisition allows us to enter an attractive segment of the de-icing market much faster than developing a solid product entirely from scratch. The assets we have acquired give us a strong technical and commercial starting point, enabling a short development and documentation phase and a fast track to market introduction. With this addition, Photocat can now offer a full-spectrum de-icing portfolio suited for city centres and other areas with strict environmental requirements.”
“We are pleased that Photocat will take this activity forward. Photocat has the strategic focus, market access and technology platform to unlock the full potential of these de-icing assets. For Alumichem, the divestment is aligned with our strategic decision to prioritise other business areas.”
Photocat estimates initial sales of approx. DKK 1 million in 2026. Future growth potential will depend on final product performance, adoption rates and regulatory uptake.
