Curt G. Joa, Inc. successfully closed on the highly anticipated acquisition of Cellulose Converting Solutions, SpA (CCS), one of Italy’s leading global manufacturers of absorbent hygiene equipment.
The finalization of this very strategic move significantly accelerates JOA’s global expansion and strengthens the company’s position as a comprehensive provider of advanced machine solutions.
Built on a shared commitment to innovation, customer focus, and industry leadership, the integration of JOA and CCS unites two family-owned organizations with complementary cultures and exceptionally talented teams. This partnership positions the combined company to drive new levels of growth, broaden its technology platform, and elevate value for customers around the world.
With more than 40 years of experience in Pescara, Italy—and a longstanding reputation for producing high-quality value-based machine platforms—CCS (formerly CCE) brings a strong heritage of engineering excellence. The addition of CCS’s machine lines perfectly complements JOA’s mid- to high-speed platforms, creating a more complete and versatile portfolio.
Together, the companies will offer customers a full spectrum of solutions—from innovation-driven systems to high-speed production platforms and advanced automation—now all available under one integrated organization.
The unification of JOA and CCS represents a transformative moment for both companies, their partners, and the broader industry. Curt G Joa, Inc. is energized by the opportunities ahead and the enhanced capabilities this acquisition unlocks. With a strengthened presence in Europe and an expanded global footprint, the combined company is better positioned than ever to meet the evolving needs of current and future customers.
Both CCS and JOA will continue operating as they do today to ensure seamless continuity, minimal disruption, and the same exceptional customer experience that both organizations are known for.
