Oy AGA Ab acquires Messer Suomi Oy

Oy AGA Ab, a subsidiary of Linde, has acquired Messer Suomi Oy, the Finnish industrial gases company in the Messer Group. “The acquisition was a natural step for us when Messer decided to leave the Finnish market,” said Pauli Toiviainen, Marketing and Sales Manager, Oy AGA Ab. He added the merger will have no disadvantages for customers.
“Due to the lack of synergies with other companies within Messer Group, management has decided to exit from Finland and dispose our shares in Messer Suomi Oy,” said Stefan Messer, CEO and owner of Messer. For now, Messer Suomi Oy will continue its daily business and will be integrated in Oy AGA Ab over time.
