Herbert Koeck, Managing Director of Titomic, commented:

“The strong level of support received from institutional and sophisticated investors shows a commitment and confidence that the Company can deliver on its growth initiatives. Titomic has made significant progress on its diversified revenue strategy and the commercialisation of its unique cold spray technology. The new funds from investors gives the Company an ability to continue to execute on joint ventures, machine sales, workflow solutions, application development and reseller opportunities.

Existing strategic investor and JV partner Repkon has also committed new funds as part of the placement. Their additional strategic investment builds on our strong relationship, with JV and reseller agreements in place, as we move forward with the integration of Titomic’s TKF process and Repkon’s flowforming capabilities for the production and distribution of high-performance barrels in the defence sector.”
