With its acquisition in September of the Danish ventilation company EXHAUSTO, VKR Holding enhanced its ventilation and indoor climate activities. The acquisition also included the Norwegian ventilation company Novema Aggregater, but not the smoke ventilator manufacturer EXHAUSTO CDT. Following approval of the transaction by the German and Norwegian competition authorities, the transaction is now final.

Increased focus on indoor climate

CEO of VKR Holding, Leif Jensen is pleased with the finalisation of the transaction: "Indoor climate is one of the major social challenges of our time; with our acquisition of EXHAUSTO we stand in a better position for coping with this challenge. EXHAUSTO fits into our business portfolio. EXHAUSTO matches and supplements the existing competences in our companies. In addition, EXHAUSTO is Scandinavia's largest family-owned ventilation company, which also pursues extensive product development and a green profile."

With the acquisition of EXHAUSTO, VKR Holding's Ventilation and indoor climate business area consists of five companies which are represented in several European countries.

VKR Holding owns companies within four business areas: Roof windows, Vertical windows, Solar thermal energy plus Ventilation and indoor climate, with a total of approx. 15,000 employees in more than 40 countries.
