The Deal
VoidForm partnered with Argonaut Private Equity and select investors in 2021.

Eric Weeldreyer, Principal at Argonaut, commented, “We appreciate Lincoln’s guidance throughout this process to identify the best partner for VoidForm. Lincoln’s deep building products expertise, strategic insight and strong execution capabilities were instrumental in achieving a successful outcome.”

David DiLuccia, President of VoidForm, commented, “We are grateful for the dedication and expertise that Lincoln provided throughout the sale process. Joining the White Cap team presents an exciting opportunity for scale and growth. For decades, our teams have worked together to help contractors protect critical structures. By becoming part of the White Cap family, we gain the resources and scale to serve customers even more effectively while continuing to deliver the best-in-class solutions that have defined the VoidForm brand.”
