Didn't an american company purchase duralex just before or during the pandemic?

Duralex was floundering and acquired by International Cookware, owned by a London private equity group in 2021.  They changed their name to La Maison Française du Verre after the acquisition. They pledged to invest in the company, but the huge increases in energy prices have made things worse so the Duralex company is in receivership once again with a decision expected from the courts later this month. 
 

Edited to add that International Cookware now La Maison Française du Verre owns the Pyrex name and manufactures it for non-US markets.
