Acquisition

 

Halma, the global group of life-saving technology companies focused on growing
a safer, cleaner, healthier future for everyone, every day, today announces
that it has acquired Safetec Srl (Safetec).

 

Founded in 2003 and headquartered near Milan, Italy, Safetec designs,
engineers and delivers customised fire and gas safety solutions for
large-scale, complex and high-risk industrial projects. Safetec's solutions
enable its customers to actively manage risk and comply with industry
standards to protect people and critical assets in demanding environments. Its
markets include power generation, oil and gas, pharmaceutical and other highly
regulated sectors where stringent safety requirements are critical. Its major
geographic markets are the Middle East, Europe and Africa.

 

The cash consideration for Safetec is €72.5m (approximately £63m), on a
cash- and debt-free basis, to be funded from Halma's existing facilities.
Safetec's revenue for the 12 months to 31 December 2025 is forecast to be
approximately €30m (approximately £26m). Safetec will be a standalone
company within Halma's Safety Sector, led by its current management team.

 

Marc Ronchetti, Group Chief Executive of Halma, commented: "Safetec further
enhances our capabilities in fire and gas safety systems for complex
industrial environments. It brings deep engineering expertise and a strong
reputation for delivering high-quality, tailored safety solutions for its
customers. These capabilities further strengthen the Safety sector and extend
our reach in supporting the protection of lives and critical assets. We are
pleased to welcome Safetec to Halma and excited by the opportunities for its
continued growth."

that shares our values and vision. By joining Halma, we retain our autonomy,
