By Renaissance Capital August 14, 2012, 09:04:47 AM EDT

Safety-Kleen, North America's leading provider of used oil recycling and parts cleaning, filed on Tuesday with the SEC to raise up to $400 million in an initial public offering. This is the company's second attempt at an IPO following a $350 million offering that was postponed in 2008 due to market conditions.

The Plano, TX-based company, which was founded in 2003 and booked $1.4 billion in sales for the 12 months ended 4/21/2012, plans to list on the NYSE under the symbol SK. Its shareholders include private equity-firms Highland Capital Management and Contrarian Capital Management. Credit Suisse and Morgan Stanley are the joint bookrunners on the deal. No pricing terms were disclosed.
