It added that “at present, the organization has reached a level at which the next step can be taken. The acquisition will enable Alara-Lukagro to realize its growth ambitions and to acquire a leading position in the fields of noise control, ventilation technology and fire protection.”

“Joining the IPCOM Group is the perfect next step to fully exploit the potential of Alara-Lukagro. As the Group, especially Atis International, largely shares the same business DNA, we have all the elements for a strong growth and future together”; says André Hameete, chief executive officer (ceo)and owner of Alara-Lukagro.

“We are very pleased to welcome Alara-Lukagro into the IPCOM family. The deal is a perfect fit as Atis International, and Alara-Lukagro are largely complementary. Atis International has built a strong position over the years in acoustic, thermal and fire resistant insulation materials, while Alara-Lukagro has built a strong international position in customized acoustic noise control solutions.

“Our combined product range and market position will strengthen our leading position as expert in noise control in various markets,” said Remco Boerefijn, ceo of IPCOM.

With a production facility in Groot Ammers, Alara-Lukagro manufactures products such as sound-insulating doors, acoustic enclosures, sound-insulating walls, louvres and silencers tailored to the customer’s needs.

IPCOM, headquartered in Belgium, is a European group of companies, specialized in the distribution and conversion of solutions for thermal insulation, high-temperature insulation and accoustic insulation.
