Indutrade acquires OCI – specialist in customised assemblies for energy and water applications
OCI is a Dutch assembly company offering smart solutions for connecting energy and water grids from the main network to domestic homes, office buildings and industrial sites. The product offering consists of customised assemblies that ensures high product quality, simplified on-site installation and tailored logistics, enabling reduction in labour hours, improved efficiency, and reduced risk for failures. Customers include regional utility network companies in the Netherlands that maintain and operate the Dutch energy and water networks, as well as installation companies and other industrial players.
OCI was founded in 2008, has 20 employees, and is located in Malden, Netherlands. The acquisition strengthens Indutrades position in attractive market segments and OCI, with its extensive technical know-how and short time-to-market for new products, has good prerequisites in place for continued sustainable profitable growth.
The closing took place on 13 July and OCI will be included in Indutrade's Business Area Benelux. The acquisition is Indutrade's 10th in 2022 and is expected to have a marginally positive impact on Indutrade's earnings per share.
