Austria’s leading Testing, Inspection and Certification (TIC) company expands its inspection and monitoring solutions portfolio. With the acquisition of the Portuguese service provider Setinsp – Inspecções Técnicas, specialists in gas inspections, TÜV AUSTRIA strengthens its market position on the Iberian Peninsula.
The internationally active group has been a sought-after partner for TIC services in Spain and Portugal for several years. Citing significant synergy potential, TÜV AUSTRIA Iberia and Setinsp’s Managing Director, Pedro Pimenta, explains the further expansion move in this region: “With the acquisition of Setinsp, we want to create additional market opportunities and put the local market on a broader footing, especially in the field of inspection and monitoring. In addition, being part of the internationally well-positioned TÜV AUSTRIA Group opens up new possibilities for looking beyond the regional horizon.”
Pedro Pimenta adds: “We are always focused on supporting the business of our B2B and B2C customers and consistently complementing our local portfolio. Therefore, as a member of the TÜV AUSTRIA Group, we will seize the opportunity for new business opportunities and take advantage of the close cooperation with other group members in order to be a strong associate for our business partners.”
