INGENITEC becomes PRONOMIC as the Amplex Group strengthens the Pronomic brand on the French market.
After Pronomic SAS, in May 2023, acquired Ingenitec SAS, a leader in the field of lifting and material handling on the French market, the brand strategy is now confirmed with the merger of the two companies.
Ingenitec SAS, based in Montbrison, is a distributor and manufacturer of lifting and material handling equipment founded in 2003. The company has a strong presence on the French market, with a sales team covering the entire country. Since its inception, the company has positioned itself on specific solutions, including highly specialized ones. With this acquisition, Pronomic SAS has become the leading distributor of lifting equipment with its proprietary Lift&Drive material lifters and other products manufactured within the Amplex group, such as tube lifters, load manipulators, and lifting tables.
The two companies are highly complementary, as they have had a reciprocal purchasing and sales relationship since 2007; thus, this merger is a natural fit. This integration will strengthen the company's position in commercial terms, as well as in terms of production and distribution in the French market.
The two facilities, Millery and Montbrison, will remain to ensure the continuity of the added value of each site. As from January 1, 2024, the company will be known as Pronomic SAS. Pronomic SAS employs 43 people in the new constellation and the head office is located in Millery, near Lyon.
"This merger follows an obvious logic and is therefore very natural, given that our product range is aimed at the same users," says Pierre Ellow, President of Pronomic SAS. “We are surrounded by a fantastic team who share our ambitions in this market for ergonomic handling solutions,” adds Jean-Charles Doublet, Managing Director of Pronomic SAS.
Amplex AB (www.amplexab.se) is a privately owned Swedish corporate group that acquires, owns, and develops technology companies in selected niches. The group currently consists of more than 20 companies mainly active in lifting and materials handling, workplace safety, and lighting.
Together, the companies have annual sales of approximately SEK 1,200 million with some 550 employees in Sweden, Finland, Ireland, the UK, France, Germany, the USA, Canada, and China. We strive to grow as a group and expand both organically and through acquisitions. As an owner, we act in the long term and with great confidence in the companies' own competence to run and develop their operations.
