Acquisitions

ASSA ABLOY has completed almost 400 acquisitions since the Group was formed in 1994, and has a target of 5 percent acquired growth over a business cycle.

The strategic rationale for each acquisition falls into one of four areas with well-defined investment criteria: 

  • Grow the core

    To expand geographically or access an installed base in an existing market. 

  • Extend the core

    By finding suitable adjacent businesses or increasing our offering to maximize customer relevance.

  • Access new technologies

    To complement our offering and open doors to new end-market verticals and segments.

  • Grow our service and distribution offering

    To obtain direct channel and aftermarket presence.
