BITZER has expanded its product portfolio by acquiring the shell-and-tube heat exchanger segment of Alfa Laval SpA based in Alonte, Northern Italy.
From the beginning of May, BITZER will be the largest independent manufacturer in the shell-and-tube heat exchanger market worldwide.
The contract between BITZER Italia and Alfa Laval SpA was signed in Milan in the first week of April.
‘I am delighted to be able to welcome Alfa Laval’s shell-and-tube heat exchangers to the BITZER family,’ BITZER's chief sales and marketing officer, Gianni Parlanti, said when announcing the acquisition.
With the acquisition of Alfa Laval’s shell-and-tube heat exchangers, BITZER is gaining more than 40 years of experience in the development of these components and is, at the same time, strategically complementing its own product lines.
Alfa Laval’s key strengths include decades of experience in dry expansion evaporators, flooded evaporators and condensers for fresh- and seawater applications with a capacity of up to 2,000 kW.
With this acquisition, BITZER is able to offer its customers highly efficient, future-proof solutions.
BITZER operates in some 100 countries with around 16,400 employees.
