For over ten years, the Heinsberg-based company has been synonymous with reliable expertise and safety on major German infrastructure construction sites in the field of renewable energies. During this time, the company has established itself as a major player in the safety engineering and consulting industry. After a decade of growth, with currently over 70 employees and two office locations, the two managing directors, Guido Sanders and Dr Bastian Verhaelen, have now taken the next step: the acquisition by the international RelyOn Group as a logical further development of the company’s orientation.
They emphasise not only the new opportunities this will bring for the company’s customers, such as expanded expertise, but also the advantages for the workforce, with more development prospects and a more future-proof position in a dynamic market environment.
Further details on the acquisition can be found in the following official press release published by RelyOn and HSEQ Professional.
