Atlanta, GA — Configure Partners, an investment banking platform specializing in debt placement and credit advisory services, announced today its role as exclusive advisor to Infinity Engineered Products in securing committed debt capital to support its refinancing and acquisition of Meklas Otomotiv. A portfolio company of Turnspire Capital Partners, Infinity is the global exclusive provider of Goodyear^® rolling lobes, bellows, and sleeve air springs with superior performance for trucks, trailers, buses, and specialty vehicles.

Founded in 1957 and headquartered in Fairlawn, Ohio, with manufacturing operations in San Luis Potosí, Mexico, Infinity is a leading provider of high-performance air springs for commercial vehicle applications. Infinity delivers a comprehensive product portfolio along with customizable solutions, serving a diverse customer base. Meklas, founded in 1986, is one of Europe’s leading air spring manufacturers with production facilities in Turkey and worldwide export capabilities.

Configure supported all aspects of the financing process, including lender screening, approach to market, transaction structuring, and negotiation of the financing-related documentation.

“Configure played an instrumental part in the transaction, not only by helping us find the right capital partner, but also by providing constant guidance on positioning and structuring the deal,” said Turnspire Vice President Riley McCabe. “This was a highly complex transaction, and we greatly value Configure’s expertise in helping deliver a successful outcome for Infinity.”

“Having originally advised Turnspire on its carveout of Infinity from Stemco in 2020, we are pleased to once again support the firm in achieving this major milestone,” said Configure Director James Bardenwerper. “It is rewarding to see Infinity’s development over Turnspire’s hold to date and exciting to have played a role as the business further strengthens its leadership in the global air springs market.”
