CPM announces the acquisition of IDAH

CPM, a leading solutions provider of process equipment and engineered technologies, today announced the acquisition of IDAH, a move that unites two industry leaders behind a shared mission to sustainably feed, fuel and build a better world. 

“The joining of these two successful enterprises will bring a new dimension of solution and  service offerings to our customers thanks to the perfectly complementary nature of our product  portfolios,” says David Webster, CPM President & CEO. “We look forward to utilising the strong  team and capabilities of the IDAH business to expand our global position in the aqua feed, pet  food and plant-based protein processing markets. We are very excited to welcome the IDAH  team to CPM.” 

Founded in 1974 by James Chang, IDAH has grown from a small plant in rural Taiwan to six  global offices serving more than 21 countries. IDAH specialises in pelleting, extruding and  drying equipment, most notably for aqua feed, petfood, snack food, and plant-based protein markets. The IDAH brand has a reputation for high-quality spare parts, machines and services and today is the number one shrimp feed machine solution provider in the world and the number one provider of aquafeed equipment in Southeast Asia.  

“The future of the IDAH business is bright as we celebrate this milestone of joining CPM,” says  Mr Chang. “Today, two industry leaders unite as one, accelerating our shared vision to sustainably  feed, fuel, and build a better world and driven by our passion to innovate and create robust  solutions that meet the evolving needs of our global customers.” 

Integration activities are already underway with IDAH joining the CPM Process Solutions  business unit, a center of excellence focused on innovative solutions for the consumer food,  animal feed and advanced materials industries. CPM Process Solutions is led by Charlie  Spearing, General Manager, and is comprised of the following product brands: Century  Extrusion, Extricom, Ruiya, Wolverine Proctor, Planet Dryers, TSA Griddle Systems and IDAH. 

Customers and business partners will continue to be served through their current contacts. CPM  and IDAH remain committed to delivering the highest level of service to customers.
