Since Triton's acquisition in 2013, the management and board of Infratek have executed a number of initiatives to improve the Company. Infratek is now the market leader and plays an important role in society by ensuring functionality in fundamental infrastructure. Infratek delivers a broad range of services in the areas of project planning, construction, maintenance and contingency services for infrastructure. For local infrastructure, the Group covers the need for a strong presence and efficient logistics. Infratek also delivers project-planning, construction, maintenance and emergency response services for high voltage power grids, and has the skills and specialist equipment required to perform all kinds of work related to voltage, irrespective of terrain and access conditions.
VINCI Group is a global player in concession and constructing and owns over 2100 companies worldwide. Infratek will be a part of VINCI Energies, one of six business areas. Among the services is maintenance and projects within energy infrastructure. VINCI Group revenue was in 2016 approx. 361 billion NOK.
'We would like to thank the management team, the employees and all other stakeholders for their contributions to Infratek's development. Triton has been the owner of Infratek for more than four years and we view this as an appropriate time for an ownership change to an industrial owner. Infratek and VINCI Group fit well together and the combined business should have a good future. We look forward to continuing our investment activity in the Nordics, acting as a responsible owner and an agent of positive change in the businesses we partner with,' says Peder Prahl, Director of the General Partner to the Triton fund.
