Beghelli S.p.A. joins the Gewiss Group

A news chapter in the history of Beghelli, as we become part of Gewiss, a solid group with a strategic vision focused on innovation and sustainability

Gewiss announces that today it has acquired a majority stake (75.04%) in the share capital of Beghelli.

In compliance with the terms set by current regulations, Gewiss will launch a mandatory Public Tender Offer (PTO) for the remaining outstanding shares of Beghelli, aiming for the delisting of the company.

By joining Gewiss, the Beghelli Group will have the opportunity to strengthen its position in the emergency lighting and safety market, building on the know-how and expertise developed over more than 40 years of activity.

Thanks to this integration, Beghelli will benefit from new technological synergies, combining Beghelli's excellence in emergency lighting with Gewiss' expertise in energy management and smart lighting. We will have the opportunity to reinforce our market presence through a development strategy that enhances both brands, and we will continue to innovate by investing in increasingly advanced solutions to meet the challenges of a constantly evolving industry.

This will better address the needs of an evolving market and, most importantly, provide customers with a stronger and more comprehensive team.

With Beghelli joining the GEWISS Group, its leadership will be entrusted to Paolo Cervini, CEO of the POLIFIN holding and its subsidiaries (GEWISS, COSTIM, and CHORUSLIFE), who will assume the role of Chairman of the Board of Directors of Beghelli, while Alfonso D'Andretta, Managing Director of GEWISS's Lighting Business Unit, will take on the position of Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Beghelli.

"This acquisition," explains Fabio BOSATELLI, Chairman of the POLIFIN holding and GEWISS, "is not only a strategic investment but also an opportunity to enhance Italian excellence. I am confident that together we can take on new challenges, create even more innovative solutions, and generate economic and social value for all our stakeholders."

"Today," adds Paolo CERVINI, "marks the beginning of an exciting journey where two outstanding companies come together to build a future of innovation and growth. This acquisition represents another significant milestone in line with our strategic vision to become a leading international player and strengthen our leadership in offering increasingly advanced solutions and services."
