The acquisition of OJ Electronics by BITZER was formally completed on June 16, 2023. BITZER, as a specialist for refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pump technology, is thus investing in broadening its scope for electronic components – especially in air handling and floor heating systems for the HVAC&R industry.
Commenting on the acquisition, Christian Wehrle, CEO of the BITZER Group, said, “We are very happy to be able to welcome OJ Electronics officially within BITZER. A big thank you goes to the efforts of the teams at both OJ Electronics and BITZER, who have made it possible for the completion to take place so quickly.”
OJ Electronics, originally founded in 1964, is a technology and innovation leader in the development, manufacturing and distribution of electronic components and has a strong focus on innovation and customisation. “We see a great opportunity in the bundled know-how of both OJ Electronics and BITZER Electronics. Investing in energy-efficient and smart electronic components shows our strong profitable growth strategy entirely in the sense of more than a compressor,” added Wehrle.
