Flexitech have been active for 20 years and this acquisition will provide the scale and financial strength necessary to compete even more effectively in the global metal manufacturing marketplace to the benefit of consumers. The investment will also lead to the creation of 25 permanent positions at the company’s Irish base over the next two-years.

Headquartered in County Meath, Hanley Energy has active data centre projects in every continent and have facilitated international expansion by making the transition from a solution integrator to a critical power systems pioneer, developing the most advanced backup power technologies to enable data center web giants to deliver digital content globally to end users.

The business has a track record of steady growth and we will continue to foster and invest in their future growth.”
“Between Flexitech’s primacy in fabrication and Hanley Energy’s design-expertise, manufacturing strength and technological know-how, we have a winning combination for delivering superior quality and profitability direct to our customers.”

Anthony & Gina McGeown, Directors of Flexitech commented:

“Our success to date is down to the hard work and dedication of our staff who have been instrumental in helping us drive forward and enabled us to move onto the next stage of our development, as a subsidiary within the Hanley Energy group.
