Ropsley Ltd, the holding company of
PJD Mechanical Engineering Ltd and the owner of the Teesside-based fabrication business
Piper Services, among others, has acquired Green's Power, a global provider of heat transfer, economiser, and industrial boiler products. This acquisition will mean the expansion of one of the largest independent groups in the UK power and industrial sectors, with a team of more than 250 people and an annual turnover exceeding £40 million.
The resulting merging of the businesses will see the launch of a ‘fully integrated solution’, from steam boiler and pressure part design and engineering, to manufacture, installation and then repair and maintenance for a variety of sectors’. PJD’s strengths lie in site installation, equipment repairs, and servicing, while Green’s is as a pioneer in design, engineering, and manufacturing.
David Hayle of Ropsley said: “We are pleased to announce this acquisition and are keen to begin integrating the businesses and offering a seamless solution to customers new and old. Now that the economic challenges of the past few years are behind us, we are very much setting our sights on further growth and look forward to supporting this iconic business with the next phase of its development.”
Chris Wright, Green’s Power operations director, concluded: “Green’s has been operating within the industry since 1821, and over this period it established itself as a global leader in the provision of boiler equipment and services. We are now very much looking forward to the future, and our partnership with the Ropsley portfolio, to continue being a truly progressive developer of solutions within the Group’s core sectors.”
