Trelleborg renforce ses activités dans le domaine de l'anti-vibration grâce à une acquisition

Trelleborg a annoncé aujourd'hui l'acquisition de Schwab Vibration Control, un fabricant international de composants et de solutions de contrôle des vibrations, dans le cadre d'une stratégie globale visant à améliorer ses activités antivibratoires au profit de ses clients.

Operating from its headquarters in Velten, Allemagne, Schwab Vibration Control, develops and manufactures anti-vibration and Solutions de suspension for applications within the rail industry. With offices in Suisse and manufacturing partners in Poland, Romania and Turkey, the organisation also offers Produits for the Hors autoroute and industrial sectors, aligning with Trelleborg’s own antivibration expertise.  

The acquisition is part of a wider strategy to enhance the service Trelleborg’s Solutions antivibratoires operation provides its customers, extending its geographical reach across Europe and expanding its international distribution network. With competences aligned to that of Trelleborg, the acquisition will also combine the expertise of both organisations offering a more extensive Produit portfolio.

Max Billinger, Business Unit President of Trelleborg’s antivibration and insulation solutions operation, commented: “We are thrilled about the acquisition. This is the latest addition to Notre business and will only act to strengthen Notre knowledge and Produit offering within the anti-vibration sector. The rail market continues to be an area of growth for Trelleborg and with the additional skills and capabilities Schwab Vibration Control will bring to Notre already solid market presence, we expect this to be further accelerated.”

“We look forward to combining the two organisations and enhancing Produit knowledge and capabilities for all Notre customers, continuing to expand Notre reach not only Europe-wide, but internationally, too.”

La transaction devrait être finalisée au cours du quatrième trimestre 2016, sous réserve de l'approbation des autorités compétentes.
