Acquisition of GWS Tech Service GmbH strengthens the company’s portfolio and expands its market access
Lingen/Geilenkirchen, 7 June 2022 – XERVON Wind GmbH, a firm specialising in technical services for the wind energy
sector, has purchased GWS Tech Service GmbH. Under the terms of the agreement, the company has taken over all of its
business activities as well as all of its employees. The signing of the transaction took place on 25 April 2022 and the closing
on 1 June 2022.
GWS primarily focuses on the wind energy sector serving both manufacturers and operators of wind turbines. Key services
offered by the company include assembling, disassembling, maintaining and commissioning hydraulic systems as well as
performing structural tests, carrying out mandatory checks on equipment components and holding training courses on
hydraulic systems and bolting techniques. Moreover, it also repairs and appraises access systems in collaboration with
inspection bodies.
Maik Schlapmann, managing director of XERVON Wind, emphasised the significance of this acquisition for these rising wind
energy experts: “Thanks to this purchase, XERVON Wind’s dynamic growth will gain even more momentum. It will not only
create a number of strategic advantages as regards our portfolio of highly specialised services but will also further strengthen
our personnel and technical capacities.” The integration of the acquired business activities – which XERVON Wind will
continue to offer under its own name – will also strengthen the company’s presence on the market. XERVON Wind managing
director Tobias Wilming commented: “Looking at the acquisition from a regional point of view, the new business location in
Geilenkirchen will enable us to be even closer to our customers. We will expand it accordingly so that we can offer our current
and future customers an even wider range of services.”
