Dussmann acquires Lynskey Engineering

(Pitured) Signing in Berlin (L to r): Stephan Possekel, Joint Managing Director, Dussmann Technical Solutions; Sean McElligott, Managing Director, Lynskey Engineering; Catherine von Fürstenberg-Dussmann, Chair, Board of Trustees of Dussmann Group; and Oliver Finckh, Joint Managing Director, Dussmann Technical Solutions.

The international multi-service provider Dussmann has acquired all shares in the multinational, Irish-headquartered mechanical engineering company, Lynskey Engineering.

Lynskey Engineering Group, which has around 120 direct, highly specialised employees and an annual revenue of €59.9m in 2024, will continue its growth trajectory within the Dussmann Technical Solutions division.

The planned acquisition strengthens the Dussmann Technical Solutions division, which was founded in May 2019 and has acquired several other technical services companies, including Irish STS Group, a multinational specialist electrical engineering company.

Dussmann Technical Solutions bundles technical expertise across the entire life cycle of facilities and building projects, from design and technical planning through installation and commissioning to technical maintenance, repair, and operations, all from a single source.

The acquisition of Lynskey adds to the existing portfolio in-house capabilities and brings, for the first time, the ability to self-perform specialist mechanical services.

Wolf-Dieter Adlhoch, CEO, Dussmann Group, commented: “The acquisition of Lynskey directly contributes to our ‘Road to 2030’ strategy. An important goal here is to establish and expand our range of engineering services for clients with complex technical demands and mission-critical systems in the industrial, energy and data centre sectors.” Lynskey has completed specialist technical projects for blue-chip clients in the data centre, pharmaceutical, retail, commercial and energy sectors. The group provides specialist mechanical design, engineering, installation and commissioning services for its clients across Europe.
