26.08.2016
The R&M Group is one of the world's leaders in the interior outfitting of ships and other maritime facilities. In addition to project business, which represents approx. two thirds of total revenue, the company also has a product business in the fields of wet units, doors, walls and ceiling systems as well as furniture with production locations at Wismar, Rostock and Kushan (China). Core technical expertise includes in particular noise and vibration protection as well as thermal and cold insulation. In 2015, with a workforce of 550, the R&M Group achieved sales of approx. € 120 million.
The NORD Holding acquired R&M in early 2007 from the Bilfinger Group. Main changes in the last 10 years have comprised strategic focusing on the growth market of cruise ships, the building of a production facility in China and the expansion of the service and maintenance business, also by the acquisition of smaller companies at home and abroad.
NORD Holding was an engaged and competent partner for us at all times who also accompanied us during the economic and financial crisis.
We are pleased to have a new partner in the DBAG who also stands for continuity, experience and financial strength.
