History

The company traces its history back to the Bundy Corporation, which was founded in 1922 and supplied gas lines to the Ford Model T.[2] It was acquired by TI Group plc in 1988.[3]

The current iteration of the company was created when Smiths Group divested its newly acquired automotive business in 2001 creating TI Automotive.[4]

In 2007, the company was acquired by a consortium of private equity investors.[5] The company was forced to go through a debt-to-equity swap in 2009 following the global economic downturn.[2]

William "Bill" L. Kozyra was named chairman, chief executive officer and president of TI Automotive in May 2008.[6]

In January 2015, the company was acquired by Bain Capital for $2.4 billion.[7][8] In 2016, the company generated sales of $3.9 billion.[9]

In October 2017, the company floated on the London Stock Exchange under its new name of TI Fluid Systems.[10] The company floated 25 per cent of its shares.[9]

Structure

The company has two divisions: fuel tank systems, and fuel tank and delivery systems.[11]
