LONDON, July 30 (Reuters) - Lenders to private equity-owned Dometic have granted the company an extra month to secure a restructuring deal, three sources close to the situation said on Thursday.

The Swedish refrigerator company, bought by BC Partners in 2005 for 1.1 billion euros ($1.55 billion), is looking for a deal to slash its debt and bring an injection of new cash.

Lenders, including Mizuho (8411.T) and Unicredit (CRDI.MI) last week gave the company until Thursday to find a restructuring deal but this deadline had to be pushed back four weeks because many of the lender syndicates are on holiday, a lender source said.

There are three competing restructuring proposals in front of the lenders, two from creditors and the third from BC Partners [ID:nLR306827]. (Reporting by Tom Freke; Editing by Rupert Winchester)
