Royal Van Beest Group acquires Spanish Sling Supply International

Hoboken law firm (previously named: DVAN Advocaten) advised Royal Van Beest Group in its acquisition of Sling Supply International S.A., a Spain-based specialist in the design, production, testing, and certification of lifting solutions across a wide range of industries.

Sling Supply International has built a strong market position in the global wind energy sector, where its core engineering and manufacturing division develops specialised lifting tools for the installation of wind turbine components, including nacelles, rotors, towers, and blades. These solutions are developed in close collaboration with leading wind turbine manufacturers, reflecting the company's deep technical expertise and its integrated approach to engineering challenges in this demanding sector.

Royal Van Beest Group is a globally recognised manufacturer and supplier of components for anchoring, load securing, and lifting, serving the onshore and offshore installation market. The acquisition of Sling Supply International is a significant step forward in the group's mission to strengthen its leadership position in these markets, adding specialised wind energy lifting capabilities to its existing portfolio. Sling Supply International will continue to operate as an independent entity within the Royal Van Beest Group.

The transaction reinforces Royal Van Beest Group's strategy of targeted acquisitions that broaden its technical capabilities and deepen its presence in high-growth segments of the global energy and installation market.

Tom van Dijk and Nathalie van Hellenberg Hubar acted as legal advisers to the buyer.
