Kaul bought by private equity firm Riverside

Global private equity firm The Riverside Company has acquired a majority stake in Kaul, the German polishing, anti-sticking and release agent producer for confectionery products such as jelly beans, gummy bears, gums and sugar-coated chocolates.

Along with the standard products, Kaul produces more than 250 tailor-made products to meet special requirements of individual customers.
