ACQUISITION OF PEIMARIN HYDRAULIIKKA – A SIGN OF STRENGTH

Since 2019, Volito Automation’s MRO segment in Finland has grown from 16 to 80 employees and developed into a comprehensive partner in hydraulics, pneumatics and electrification. The latest in a series of acquisitions – the Åbo-based Peimarin Hydrauliikka Oy – strengthens positions in terms of geographical coverage and expertise.

Volito Automation is active in industrial automation in the Nordic region. There is now an established nationwide organisation in Sweden and Finland that primarily serves OEM manufacturers and end users. The group has a total of 200 employees, a turnover of SEK 700 million and offers complete solutions and service in industrial, mobile and marine hydraulics, pneumatics and electric operation.

“We acquired 100% of Peimarin Hydrauliikka Oy in June 2022,” says Jukka Sahi, CEO of HydSupply Oy and head of MRO in Finland. “Peimarin Hydrauliikka, which specialises in service, preventive maintenance and production optimisation in mobile hydraulics and pneumatics, has quickly become a natural part of our MRO segment with HydSupply and ProTest Engineering.”

“Peimarin Hydrauliikka is a very appreciated and highly respected operator in the Finnish aftermarket, with a good reputation as a skilled and professional problem-solver,” says Jukka Sahi. “We have had good and well-developed cooperation with them for many years. It is both pleasing and a sign of strength for our customers that the company is now a part of Volito Automation.”

In Finland, Volito Automation’s MRO segment is represented in Tammerfors, Björneborg, Jyväskylä, Äänekoski, Kuopio and, after the acquisition of Peimarin Hydrauliikka, in Åbo.

In addition to service and support, preventive maintenance and production optimisation, the MRO business offers carefully selected original components from the market’s most well-reputed suppliers.

“It is our expressed ambition to be one of the leading operators in the Nordic region,” says Jukka Sahi. “With the acquisition of Peimarin Hydrauliikka, we gain not only better geographical coverage and further strengthened local representation, but also a strong boost in terms of knowledge and experience. We can now provide experienced specialists in virtually all areas in hydraulics, pneumatics and electrification, as well as resources for major projects and initiatives – while maintaining a customer-focused profile and strong local presence.”
