ARMATURY will be combined with Vexve, a Finland based district energy valve manufacturer already owned and managed by DevCo. Together, ARMATURY and Vexve will become a European leader for valve solutions, with a complete portfolio for customers in the wider energy sector and an aggregate turnover of approximately€110 million. Jussi Vanhanen, CEO of Vexve, will become the CEO of the combined entity.
