Our Mission

Our Mission

Our mission is to consolidate engineering knowledge and know-how to enhance existing solutions, while achieving synergies through the streamlining of regulatory overheads and compliance that are increasingly burdening the engineering industry.

Buying reoccurring cash generative businesses.

Economies of Scale

Pooling resources and knowledge, realising cost savings & profits.

Auriga Industries employs a targeted Buy & Build strategy in the composite, new materials, and precision engineering industries, aiming to create a cohesive and strengthened portfolio of companies. We focus on acquiring and merging underperforming or undervalued businesses that hold significant market potential and can benefit from our operational expertise and strategic guidance. By integrating these companies, we leverage synergies, optimise operational efficiencies, and enhance overall market positioning.

Auriga Industries targets companies with up to £2.5m in sustainable EBITDA and at least £5m in revenue, focusing on low-leverage, family or founder-owned businesses. Our investment approach leverages pre-market access and comprehensive due diligence across all key business areas, ensuring transparency with no hidden costs. We aim for majority ownership, maintaining significant operational control and leadership involvement to drive consistent EBITDA growth between 5% and 9% annually and achieve operational synergies.

Auriga Industries drives value through operational improvements and strategic mentoring, delivering a 2-3x return on investment. Our exit strategies include industry sales, private equity, or IPOs. We support robust EBITDA growth of 5% to 9% per year and enable significant debt funding, projecting over £3m in free cash reserves and a group valuation between £39m and £46m by 2029/2030.

Unique Pipeline

Auriga Industries differentiates itself from other investment vehicles through its unique access, niche focus and operational expertise. We are building on an existing cash generative portfolio and have secured a pipeline which will further enhance our ability to create value. Our approach will help garner further acquisition opportunities bolstering our position as a value creating and profitable enterprise.
