Viessmann Generations Group acquires ISOPLUS from Egeria to promote sustainable heat distribution systems

The Viessmann Generations Group (”Viessmann”), a purpose-driven family company with a heritage of 107 years, has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire the ISOPLUS Group (”ISOPLUS”) from Egeria.

The investment underscores Viessmann’s ongoing commitment to driving the energy transition, by strengthening the infrastructure to support decarbonisation in Europe. With the production of pre-insulated pipes for sustainable local and district energy distribution, ISOPLUS is supporting the decarbonisation of local and district energy supply and the necessary adjustments to the energy infrastructure to achieve the European climate targets.

 

Max Viessmann, CEO of Viessmann Generations Group:
“We are thrilled to welcome ISOPLUS to the Viessmann family and its network of dedicated, responsible entrepreneurs. By joining forces, we can rapidly advance sustainable infrastructure, paving the way to lower emissions and integrate renewable energy into daily life. This partnership strengthens our commitment to building a resilient energy landscape, co-creating living spaces for generations to come.”

 

Roland Hirner, CEO of  ISOPLUS:
“Our employees’ great commitment and dedication have been instrumental in securing ISOPLUS’ European market leadership. With Viessmann on board, we will continue serving our loyal customer base and will take ISOPLUS to the next level.”

 

Oliver Frey, Chairman of ISOPLUS:
”The last years have been a great entrepreneurial team-up with a very passionate ISOPLUS management team, which was invested alongside Egeria. It enabled them to grow the business internationally, also via recent acquisitions in Finland (Uponor District Energy) and France (Solice). With Viessmann, ISOPLUS has now found a long- term industrial home.”

 

Hannes Rumer, Managing Partner Egeria Beteiligungen, Munich:
“It has been such a privilege for Egeria supporting ISOPLUS on their way to become market leader for district heating solutions in Europe. Viessmann is the perfect partner to take this great company to the next stage.”

 

The pre-insulated pipes from ISOPLUS serve to promote CO₂-neutral heat generation, as they efficiently transport renewable energy and industrial waste heat to communities and industries. In this way, the company contributes to the decarbonisation of Europe’s local and district heating infrastructure. ISOPLUS’ commitment to CO₂-neutral heating solutions is in line with Viessmann’s goal, ‘Shaping living spaces for future generations.´
