Growth strategy in the building technology market continues
The Burkhalter Group has acquired Enplan AG, a building services engineering company based in Herisau, Appenzell Ausserrhoden, and Elektro Gasser AG, an electrical and telecommunications company based in Lalden, Valais. These two acquisitions will enable the Group to expand its market share in building services engineering in a targeted manner.
The Burkhalter Group, a full-service provider of cross-trade building technology, is acquiring Enplan AG, which specialises in the planning of heating and ventilation systems and efficient energy concepts. The company has been operating in the regional market since 1984, employs five people and generates annual sales of around CHF 0.6 million.
Enplan AG will be merged with Längle & Staub GmbH in St. Gallen, which belongs to the Burkhalter Group, and will continue to operate at its current location as Enplan, a branch of Längle & Staub GmbH. All employees will be retained.
Secondly, the Burkhalter Group is acquiring Elektro Gasser AG, which has been active in the electrical and telecommunications (ICT) sectors since 1991. The company employs seven people and generates annual sales of around CHF 2 million. Elektro Gasser AG will be gradually integrated into TZ Stromag, which belongs to the Group. At the same time, a branch of TZ Stromag will be established at the Lalden site under the name Gasser Elektro ICT, while Elektro Gasser AG will continue to operate as an independent company until further notice.
With these acquisitions, the Burkhalter Group is continuing its growth strategy. It provides services in the fields of heating, cooling, ventilation, air conditioning, sanitation and electrical engineering and is headquartered in Zurich.
