Nederman & Dantherm combine UK business

Following last year's acquisition of Dantherm Filtration by Nederman, the combined business began trading in the UK as Nederman Ltd on 1st April 2011.

"We reviewed operations carefully and have now successfully integrated customer service, aftersales and project sales," said Mark Hodgens, MD.

"Combining as a single business is an important milestone, our customers and suppliers will be receiving formal communication over the coming weeks." Although Nederman has completed several notable acquisitions, both in the UK and internationally, following successful flotation on the OMX Stockholm Stock Exchange in 2007, this has been on a different scale, doubling Nederman's size and positioning it as the global market leader in industrial air filtration. The group now makes combined annual sales of around £195m in nearly 60 countries (with 27 fully owned companies) supported by manufacturing and assembly plant in 8 countries.

Whilst Dantherm and Nederman have overlapped in the market, the systems are really complementary.

Nederman's industrial air cleaning systems typically run to 15,000m3 where Dantherm's reach 150,000m3 and cover specialist market segments including foundries, smelters and wood dust.
