Flaming hot deal: Altebra Group acquires unit from Lybover

Altebra (short for ‘Alles Tegen Brand’ in Dutch) is a 100 percent Belgian, fast-growing company and market leader in Belgium in the field of sprinkler and foam extinguishing systems.

The activities will also continue to be carried out at the same location in Waregem.

Thanks to this collaboration, Altebra becomes unique in Europe with a complete one-stop-shop offering of active fire protection, ranging from design and installation of fire-safe systems, such as fire detection, (foam) sprinkler, gas extinguishing, high-pressure water mist, combined with expertise in RWA. and RWC of Altebra Waregem, as well as in the field of maintenance and advice.
