VINCI Energies acquired Miprotek GmbH, based in Buxtehude, Germany, on June 25, 2024. Miprotek GmbH is a specialist for automation and process solutions in the fields of asphalt mixing and bitumen tank systems.
With this acquisition, VINCI Energies is expanding the range of services of its industrial brand Actemium, the leading full-service provider of industrial process solutions, in the areas of plant and automation technology in Germany.
Miprotek was founded in 1983 and with 75 employees and an annual turnover of around thirteen million euros, specializes in the automation of control processes in the asphalt and bitumen industry. The company is also successful in process automation in the pharmaceutical, food and body care sectors with long-standing customer relationships.
“Miprotek is an industry-recognized provider of innovative automation technology solutions with a wealth of ideas and experience. The integration of Miprotek into Actemium opens up new opportunities across several highly specialized industries. We are looking forward to meeting our new colleagues, some of whom we have already had the pleasure of getting to know in recent weeks. Our two corporate cultures fit together wonderfully.” – Gerald Taraba, Managing Director, Actemium Middle-East.
“We as “old shareholders” and especially I as an employee from the very beginning would like to hand over the life’s work of the last 34 years into “good hands”.”, says Martin Cordes, Managing Director of miprotek GmbH. “In our view, the best option here is a strong partner who sees the acquisition not just as a financial investment, but who will take miprotek forward through a common market and the resulting synergies, create new and additional fields of activity, provide the framework conditions for stable and long-term growth and offer all employees secure prospects. We have achieved this with the sale to VINCI Energies.”
One of the aims of the integration is to be able to offer Actemium’s customers an even more comprehensive, cross-industry service portfolio thanks to the expanded solution expertise in a large network. In addition, the integration of miprotek under the Actemium brand will enable customers to benefit from synergy effects in terms of resources and the exchange of know-how.
