BST Group has acquired the fire and risk consulting company Bricon AB. This acquisition expands BST Group’s consulting services and further strengthens its position in the fire protection and risk management market.
Bricon AB is a highly regarded provider of consulting services in fire protection and risk management. The company offers advice on building fire protection, flammable materials, tunnel safety, and Seveso regulations. Founded in 2013, Bricon has grown across several geographic markets and now operates in Stockholm, Sundsvall, Härnösand, Umeå, Malmö, Lund, and Helsingborg, with nearly 40 employees and strong prospects for continued growth.
Bricon will continue as an independent entity within BST Group’s growing family of consulting firms.
“We are very pleased with this deal. Bricon is an exceptionally successful company and highly valued by both customers and employees,” says Peter Bühler, Group CEO of BST Group.
Recently, BST Group also acquired Brandkonsulten AB. Both acquisitions strengthen BST Group’s expanding consulting division, while ensuring that the factors contributing to each company’s success are maintained.
“Bricon will continue to operate under its own brand and within its existing organization, just like our other consulting firms. We believe it is important for our companies to retain their successful working methods and have the opportunity, with our support, to continue developing their operations independently,” says Peter Bühler.
For Bricon’s management and Managing Director Magnus Åkerlind, the promise to preserve the company’s unique identity was a key factor in the acquisition. At the same time, the deal presents new opportunities.
“Bricon has been a success story from day one, and with BST Group backing us, we have all the conditions needed to elevate the business further. We can develop, work long-term, and create security for both our employees and our clients,” says Magnus Åkerlind.
