On October 15, 2024, Hawa Sliding Solutions AG took over the internationally operating Klein group, which has its headquarters in Barcelona, Spain. Like Hawa, Klein is one of the specialists and global market leaders in the sliding solutions sector, according to a press statement. Hawa is expanding its portfolio and reinforcing its global market position with this acquisition. The management team at Klein will remain the same, as will the brands and locations of the two companies.
The family-run Klein company, which was established in 1931, made a name for itself with innovations in natural interior design. The company has 65 employees, five of whom work at its New Jersey location in the USA. Klein completes the Hawa portfolio in the “in and on buildings” sectors with sliding and folding door systems, and also solutions for outdoor areas.
Ezequiel Di Claudio, CEO of Hawa Sliding Solutions AG and chair of the newly created group management, is convinced: “We are reinforcing our company over the long term with Klein”. Since they are both family-run companies, they share the same values and principles. Together with its new colleagues, Hawa can now provide its customers with an even more comprehensive range of sliding solutions.
Marc Tàrrega Klein, Managing Director of Klein Ibérica S.A.U, adds: “We are delighted to now be part of the Hawa Group. This takeover is recognition of our 90-year history and the commitment of our team. It opens up new perspectives for us, and reinforces our ability to successfully overcome future challenges.”
