Unica Acquires Nijmeijer Koeltechniek and Schoonebeek Klimaattechniek

Unica has completed the acquisition of Nijmeijer Koeltechniek and Schoonebeek Klimaattechniek, two Dutch companies specializing in cooling and climate technology for industrial and utilitarian applications. The transaction, announced in March 2026, integrates these firms into Unica’s broader platform, aiming to expand service offerings and strengthen market presence.

Although financial terms were not disclosed, the deal was facilitated by IMAP | Taurus, which advised the sellers. Legal counsel was provided by Yspeert Advocaten N.V., while Mulderij & Partners Accountants en Adviseurs handled fiscal and financial advisory roles. The acquisition reflects Unica’s strategic intent to broaden its technical capabilities and customer base in the industrial cooling and climate sector.

Nijmeijer Koeltechniek and Schoonebeek Klimaattechniek have built strong reputations through technical expertise and long-standing client relationships. Both companies will continue to operate under their own names and from their existing locations, preserving their distinct identities. Chéry Wortelboer, director of both firms, stated, “We remain committed to our identity and locations. This step opens new opportunities to further develop our services and continue supporting our customers effectively.”

Unica is a leading provider in the cooling and climate technology industry, offering integrated solutions across various sectors. The addition of Nijmeijer and Schoonebeek enhances Unica’s portfolio, enabling cross-selling of expanded services and access to new industrial segments. The acquisition also supports operational efficiencies through shared procurement and administrative consolidation.

The industrial cooling and climate technology market is experiencing consolidation as companies seek scale and broader service capabilities. Unica’s move positions it competitively against peers by leveraging combined technical expertise and expanding its footprint within the Netherlands. Competitors may respond with strategic partnerships or increased investment in innovation and customer service.

Financial details of the transaction remain confidential. The integration plan focuses on maintaining service continuity and aligning operational processes while respecting the acquired companies’ cultures. Key risks include managing integration complexity and retaining critical personnel and customer relationships.

Looking ahead, Unica aims to capitalize on the expanded platform to drive innovation and operational scalability. The acquisition is expected to reinforce Unica’s leadership in the industrial and utilitarian cooling and climate technology sector.
