Earlier this year Siemens Energy began the strategic move to carve out and separately manage Trench, which specializes in high-voltage grid components including bushings, instrument transformers and coil products, sold under the brands HSP and Trench. The Trench business has a strong market position, this sale is one of many strategic decisions to sharpen Siemens Energy’s focus on its core business.
Trench has locations across Europe including Germany, Austria, France, Bulgaria and Italy with additional operational footprint in China and Canada. Once the closing has taken place, its 2,400 employees and 9 factory locations, will transfer to the new owner.
Tim Holt, member of the Managing Board for Siemens Energy: “We are positioning Siemens Energy for the future, which means sharpening our portfolio, simplifying our business and rationalizing how and where we can invest in innovation. The Trench business is a small medium enterprise with ambitious growth plans which will be best realized under different ownership. The transaction is an optimal solution for the business and crucially for the employees, as it is for the transformation of Siemens Energy.”
