Cramo Group assesses strategic alternatives for its Modular Space (Cramo Adapteo) business

In line with Cramo Group’s strategy “Shape and Share”, a key focus area has been to clarify and make Equipment Rental and Modular Space product areas more autonomous business divisions. The Board of Cramo Group has decided to further investigate and initiate a process to assess the potential separation of the Modular Space business division into its own legal entity. The Modular Space business has limited operational synergies with regards to business model and customers with Cramo’s Equipment Rental operations.

This assessment of different strategic alternatives will be carried out during 2018 and includes a potential demerger and separate listing of Cramo Adapteo.

The Modular Space business had sales of EUR 118 million and EBITA of EUR 31 million in 2016.
