We are looking forward to become a part of ÅF, one of the strongest engineering and design companies in Scandinavia. Our customers and employees will benefit from our joint capacity and competence. Together we will have the ability to take on major transmission and distribution projects.

Denmark is a prioritized and interesting market for us with upcoming investments in the Danish main grid system. P.A.P has a deep competence within transmission and distribution which complements our offering and will enable further growth within energy in Scandinavia.

Jonas Gustavsson, President and CEO, ÅF

ÅF’s acquisition of P.A.P is another sign of the ongoing consolidation within the engineering consultancy sector in the Nordics. We are confident that this is a strong match as the two companies share the same values and have a strong history of over 100 years. Congratulations to both parties.
