We advised Wienerberger in enhancing its portfolio for water solutions in Northern Europe

We acted as legal advisor to the Dutch subsidiary Inter Act B.V. of Wienerberger AG, listed on the Vienna Stock Exchange, when it acquired a majority shareholding in the Finnish water management technology company Slatek Oy.

The acquisition of Slatek will significantly strengthen Wienerberger’s foothold in the attractive segment for public water management in Finland, and – due to its complementary portfolio – unlock cross-selling synergies with Wienerberger’s platform for smart solutions.

Slatek is a family-owned company headquartered in Oulu, Northern Finland, and is positioned as a reliable high-end provider for smart automation solutions with a strong reputation in the industry.

Wienerberger is a leading international provider of innovative, ecological solutions for the entire building envelope, in the fields of new build and renovation, as well as infrastructure in water and energy management.

Partner Harri Tolppanen was responsible for the assignment. The team also included Senior Associates Linda Stenroth, Petra Snäll and Lavinia Husa.
