Phoenix Mecano consolidates ELCOM/EMS division via acquisition of REDUR Messwandler

 

Stein am Rhein/Kloten, 25 June 2014. With effect from 1 July 2014, the Phoenix Mecano Group, leaders in the manufacture and sale of technical components for industrial applications, will acquire all shares in REDUR Messwandler GmbH, Merzenich (Germany).

 

REDUR is a successful manufacturer of instrument transformers for low-voltage applications and of measurement transducers, the main areas of application for these technologies being electricity measurements. End users include substation builders, energy supply companies and manufacturers of control-technology devices.

 

The company will be integrated into the Group's ELCOM/EMS division. Following the acquisition of Phoenix Mecano SMS on 1 January 2014, this current move is another key element in the strategic development of the transformer and instrument transformer segment in which Phoenix Mecano combines existing expertise and know-how with acquiring products, know-how and sales channels within the framework of the realignment of the ELCOM/EMS division.

 

In 2013, REDUR (20 employees) posted turnover of approximately €3 million. The parties have agreed not to disclose the purchase price.
