Norwegian maritime supplier, Noreq, has officially announced the acquisition of Acta in Denmark.
Acta is located in Odense, Denmark and the name of the new company is NoreqActa.
"With this acquisition, the Noreq group is not only strengthening our foothold in the lifeboat, davit and fender market, but we are also entering the industry with production of own ship- and offshore cranes," said Styrk Bekkenes, Managing Director of Noreq.
"Acta has long been an important supplier to the wind power industry and they hold great competence and expertise on this subject. With the future of green energy we will continue to build and strengthen Acta's position within this industry and we see a great potential here," said Bekkenes.
The number of employees in Noreq Group will now increase from 35 to 70 people.
Since the beginning in 2006, Noreq has achieved a position in the market as an innovative manufacturer of lifesaving equipment. There is a significant order reserve in Acta, which will now be taken over by NoreqActa.
