The acquisition of Eisenmann will strengthen the Group’s core business of manufacturing systems for the automotive industry.
Eisenmann GmbH announced that Daifuku will acquire 100% of the shares of Eisenmann GmbH from its current shareholder Nimbus Hands-on Investors (Netherlands).
The Daifuku Group provides systems for a wide range of industries from its production and sales bases in 24 countries and regions worldwide, with systems for automobile production lines representing one of its core businesses.
By acquiring Eisenmann’s shares, Daifuku gains the ability to offer even more comprehensive coverage in automotive and industrial manufacturing, especially in the field of painting – from quotation and planning through commissioning and after-sales support – tailored to European standards and customer-specific requirements, which is becoming increasingly important. Daifuku and Eisenmann have therefore decided to join forces and integrate Eisenmann into the Daifuku Group in order to strengthen and expand their capabilities in the field of system solutions worldwide.
Eisenmann offers innovative automation technologies as well as proprietary, sustainable and economical solutions in the field of painting and final assembly, which are mainly used by European manufacturers of automotive and industrial components.
Daifuku, on the other hand, has a strong global presence, a broad product and solution portfolio, in-depth expertise in project execution, and a very strong research and development team. The business areas of Eisenmann and Daifuku complement each other perfectly, particularly in the field of industrial painting and surface treatment systems.
Through this acquisition, Daifuku as well as Eisenmann expect to enhance their proposal capabilities and expand integrated offerings in the automotive production line systems field, leading to increased value provided to customers and expanded order opportunities.
