Apleona focused on ESG solutions

The company addresses the growing demand for environmental, social, and governance (ESG) solutions, focusing on products that reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions in buildings.

Looking ahead, the company plans to expand its European platform and accelerate the digital transformation of its services.

The company is investing in data-driven and AI-based control systems for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, as well as predictive maintenance for building technology.

It has already made significant strides, having acquired and successfully integrated 14 strategic acquisitions across Europe, including the transformative acquisition of Gegenbauer Group in 2023.

The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals.
