CHARLOTTE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Blue Point Capital Partners and its portfolio company, Transtar Holding Company, are pleased to announce the acquisition of Pro Form Products, a manufacturer of refinishing and repair products for automotive, aviation, industrial and marine applications.

Pro Form's products play an essential role in the success and growth of its customers' businesses in the collision repair and refinish provider industry.

Founded in Cleveland, Ohio, Transtar is a portfolio of automotive aftermarket brands with business units focused on parts distribution, cutting-edge e-commerce software, coatings products and more. Blue Point and Transtar announced their partnership in January 2021.
"Pro Form and Transtar Autobody Technologies are well-paired from a strategic and commercial standpoint," said Transtar President and CEO Neil Sethi. "This addition to our portfolio of businesses will allow us to enter new end-markets — including industrial and marine — as well as expand the depth and breadth of our product line and provide complementary geographic coverage across the U.S. and Canada.
