Crossminds assists Labee Group Moerdijk with the acquisition of De Lange

Labee Group Moerdijk produces environment-friendly products such as fireplace blocks and wood pellets from wood residues. Since its establishment in 1991, the Labee Group Moerdijk has become the market leader of Western Europe in terms of fireplace blocks.

With the guidance of Marco dú Pre and Pieter Poortvliet from Crossminds, Labee Group Moerdijk acquired a 100% equity interest in De Lange Houtvezel- en Zaaghandel at the end of March 2019. De Lange Houtvezel- en Zaaghandel is based in Ursum and specializes in the production of woodfiber, sawdust, fireplace blocks and pellets.

In addition to the above, Crossminds has assisted the Labee Group Moerdijk with the acquisition financing.

The acquisition enables Labee Group Moerdijk to secure the volume of the required and scarce raw materials to realize purchasing advantages and to produce more efficiently. This further strengthens the market leadership.
