Dettingen/Erms, October 7, 2024 +++ The automotive industry is in a state of far-reaching transition, underlying conditions are in constant flux, and significant investment is required to remain competitive. In ElringKlinger's case, this applies primarily to products in the area of thermal and acoustic shielding, particularly in Europe and North America. Against this backdrop, the Group has taken the strategic decision to divest itself of its two companies in Sevelen (CH) and Buford, GA (USA). To this end, ElringKlinger today signed an agreement on the sale of the aforementioned entities with the Certina Group, which has already gained extensive expertise in the automotive supply industry through its subsidiaries.
