SunCoke Energy completed its previously announced $325-million acquisition of Phoenix Global on Friday, Aug. 1.
The Lisle, Ill.-based coke producer said it has acquired all of the common units of Flame Aggregator LLC, which, together with its subsidiaries, operates as Phoenix Global.
SunCoke announced the deal at the end of May and has said it will enable the company to diversify into electric-arc furnace operations. It also adds international markets to SunCoke’s portfolio.
“We are thrilled to officially welcome Phoenix into the SunCoke family,” SunCoke President and CEO Katherine T. Gates said in a statement. “We are excited by the opportunity to reach new customers and new markets with the addition of Phoenix’s assets.”
Radnor, Pa.-based Phoenix Global is an international provider of fully integrated metals and mining services.
