EMI Group Enters the Dutch Market Through the Acquisition of Damm Deurentechniek B.V.
EMI Group is pleased to announce the acquisition of Damm Deurentechniek B.V., a respected Dutch company specializing in sectional overhead doors, aluminium sliding doors, insulated technical doors and engineered access solutions. This acquisition marks EMI Group’s official entry into the Dutch market and further strengthens its expanding European footprint, which now spans Romania, Belgium and the Netherlands.
Damm Deurentechniek has earned the trust of the Dutch industrial sector through years of dedication and technical expertise. The company is recognized for its specialized industrial door offering and its strong capabilities in maintenance, service and on-demand assistance. Alongside these core services, Damm also delivers tailored engineering solutions for complex industrial environments. Its reliable, custom-built systems and commitment to outstanding service align naturally with EMI Group’s ethos and open access to a highly specialized and technically demanding market in Western Europe.
The business is driven by a highly experienced and entrepreneurial leadership team. Day-to-day operations are managed by Wim Poppe and Edwin van Overbeeke, who are supported by the strategic guidance of Frank Sijm, a long-standing industry expert. Their customer-centric mindset, strong reputation in the Dutch market and solid engineering culture make Damm a seamless fit within EMI Group’s decentralized and locally empowered operating model.
Reflecting on the integration, Jérôme France, CEO of EMI Group, emphasized the importance of this step in the Group’s European journey:
The integration of Damm Deurentechniek is an important milestone for EMI Group. Damm brings deep technical know-how, a strong industrial focus and a highly trusted team that shares our values of entrepreneurship and operational excellence. Entering the Dutch market with such a solid partner gives us the right foundation to build long-term growth and to strengthen our position in Western Europe.
The addition of Damm strengthens EMI Group’s network of industrial access-solution specialists and broadens its technical capabilities across multiple industrial applications. It also reinforces the Group’s focus on service, maintenance and lifecycle support, while creating new opportunities for cross-country collaboration within EMI’s expanding European structure. This acquisition represents another step forward in building a unified European group rooted in strong local expertise and guided by a clear ambition: to become a reference leader in industrial access solutions.
