Clearwater has advised FIMO Group, part of the Wise Equity portfolio and a benchmark for the design and implementation of components and solutions for telecommunication sites, on its acquisition of VOLX, a creator of innovative solutions for architectural and landscape camouflage.
In the context of 5G deployment and accelerated telecom infrastructure development, operators and site managers must address the challenge of antenna camouflage with tailored and sustainable solutions.
For more than 25 years, VOLX has been designing, manufacturing, and installing products and camouflage solutions adapted to all types of telecommunication sites, including architectural, landscape, on monuments, and temporary sites.
Based on a strategy of continuous innovation, VOLX controls the entire value chain internally: consulting, design through its integrated Design Office, manufacturing, delivery, installation, customer follow-up and after-sales service. Thanks to its customer orientation, VOLX has implemented a real culture of continuous improvement within its teams, ensuring its competitiveness and developing its operational excellence.
FIMO Group is a world leader in the production of components and solutions for telecommunications, with a strong and growing international presence. In a constantly evolving telecommunication market, the group is committed to providing its customers with custom-designed and manufactured solutions. All the technologies offered by FIMO Group are enhanced by significant investments in R&D and optimised production processes.
The combination of FIMO Group and VOLX is the result of a common vision based on innovation to meet the expectations of the telecom market, by putting people at the heart of the business. VOLX provides a structured internal organisation along with industrial expertise, while FIMO Group provides distribution channels, especially internationally, and its ability to grow steadily and invest in R&D. By combining their talents and know-how, FIMO Group and VOLX teams can offer their customers the widest range of high value-added and sustainable products in the European market, with wide international coverage.
VOLX will also continue to work with its local partners and suppliers and will create jobs in the Beaujolais region in France, where its production centre will be reinforced.
