Orkli and Valmex agree to purchase 40% of the Valmex Group
Orkli, a MONDRAGON Group company specialising in the manufacture of ceramic fibre burners, has acquired a 40% holding in the Italian company Valmex, a water heat exchanger manufacturer based in Lucrezia di Cartoceto, Italy.
The deal strengthens Orkli’s market position, making it a global benchmark company in the water heating sector, with a full product range sold worldwide.
The many synergies between the two companies will boost the development of new, innovative product solutions, helping open up the brand to new markets and customers.
Orkli’s holding in Valmex will strengthen the feasibility of the projects on which Valmex works and ensure the continuity of those already underway. It will also reinforce both companies’ know-how, allowing them to engage in new, larger undertakings.
In the words of Patxi López Urkiola, Orkli’s Managing Director: “This acquisition clearly positions us as a one-stop supplier with a global outlook and the capacity to meet all our customers’ needs. It is an exciting, transformational deal that will make us one of the sector’s main stakeholders, enabling growth as a company and the reinforcement of Orkli’s innovative character”.

Our innovation commitment is greatly boosted with this deal”.
