Danaher Corp. is working with Sard Verbinnen & Co. on the PR front of its $13.8B acquisition of water filtration systems maker Pall Corp., and subsequent plan to split into two companies.
Washington, D.C.-based Danaher's dental, water quality and diagnostics business will combine with Pall to form a $16.5B company under the Danaher name, while its industrial operations will be spun off into a yet-to-be-named enterprise with around $6B in annual revenue. Both companies will be publicly traded.
Pall is based in Port Washington, N.Y., and makes products that separate materials from water for use in life sciences and industry.
