BREDA, Netherlands, May 1, 2015 /PRNewswire
SPIE, the independent European leader in multi-technical services in energy and communications, announces the acquisition of the Numac Group. This strategic acquisition strengthens SPIE's position in the eastern Netherlands.
Founded in 1984, Numac is a leading industrial maintenance service provider for the Dutch industry. Through its four subsidiaries, the company offers a comprehensive portfolio of services and solutions: mechanical engineering, control and installation technology, and machine maintenance for metal technology. With over 670 employees and 16 locations in the Netherlands, the Numac Group, headquartered in Venray, generates an annual turnover of €57 million.
Lei Ummels, Managing Director of SPIE Netherlands: “This acquisition is an excellent opportunity for both companies to further develop their businesses and reach new customers throughout the Netherlands.
