Rotim contributes to an optimized living environment with its extensive range of naturally coloured decorative materials. Based on its ongoing objective to work on an even better infrastructure for the Netherlands, Rotim is continuously on the lookout for opportunities to improve raw materials, their applications, and application processes, turning products into solutions.

Founded in 1980 by Rob Klemann and Timo Bos, the company initially primarily supplied armor stone, track ballast, and semi-pavings. Over time, the offering expanded to also include raw materials for asphalt, coloured asphalt, architectural concrete, and minerals for industrial applications. A management buy-out took place in 2003, and a Belgian subsidiary was incorporated in 2011.

Today, Rotim is involved in various innovation-driven initiatives in specific application areas such as climate-adaptive water buffering and large-scale hydraulic engineering. The company is renowned for its deep expertise in products with a unique value add through their specific characteristics, mainly serving the road construction, hydraulic engineering, railways, recreation, concrete industry, and industrial mineral markets.

Blacktrace acted as exclusive advisor on the valuation of Rotim and the structuring of the management participation.
