Danboring was founded in 1997 and is headquartered in Kjellerup, Denmark, with around 35 employees. The company offers a wide range of services in trenchless technologies, including directional drilling for water, sewage, electrical cables, fibre, and district heating. Danboring has built a strong position in the Danish market with long-term customer relationships through a flexible business model, and a local presence in eastern and western Denmark. In addition to the main operations in Denmark, the company is also active in Norway, Sweden and Germany.
Danboring is led by Heine Serritslev Jørgensen, CEO, and Thorbjørn Risgaard, founder and Head of business development. Heine and Thorbjørn will remain in their respective roles and as minority owners in Danboring.
"We have had a positive development during the recent years and are very pleased to bring in a new majority owner with a long-term perspective, significant financial strength and great competence. Together with Storskogen and their other companies in trenchless technologies, we look forward to taking advantage of market opportunities and continue to grow and further develop the company," says Thorbjørn Risgaard, founder of Danboring.
Danboring is the fourth acquisition in Storskogen Denmark in the past year and complements the other companies in trenchless technologies that are a part of Storskogens Infrastructure vertical.
"We are very happy to have acquired a successful company like Danboring. The company has established a strong market position in trenchless pipe installation and has benefited from the market trend that favour solutions with minimum impact on the surroundings and the environment. We look forward to continuing to develop the company together with the management and the employees," says Jan Ebbesen, Managing Director of Storskogen Danmark.
The acquisition is expected to be completed in the beginning of the second quarter 2022.
