KENNESAW, GA, Aug. 16, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brand Industrial Services, known
as BrandSafway, has signed an agreement to acquire Venko Groep BV, a portfolio
company of Mentha Capital. Venko will become a part of the Brand Energy &
Infrastructure Services (Brand) group.
"We are very pleased to announce the agreement with Venko," said Bill Hayes,
President and CEO of BrandSafway. "Our combined customers in Europe will benefit
from a broader range of solutions and greater depth of expertise in access,
insulation and coatings. Bringing Venko's highly specialized knowledge in
coatings to BrandSafway will provide the expertise we need to expand our
services in the offshore market worldwide."

Venko is a leading offshore and onshore coatings maintenance provider in Europe.
Founded in 1975, Venko has its headquarters in Hoogeveen, with branch locations
in Arnhem, Den Helder and Ridderkerk in the Netherlands, and Great Yarmouth and
Aberdeen in the United Kingdom. Employing up to 500 people in peak season, Venko
specializes in the maintenance of coatings on steel structures - from offshore
applications to civil projects and bridges.
"This is a perfect fit for both Brand and Venko," said Mick Herke, Vice
President of Brand Energy & Infrastructure Services in Europe. "Venko has a
highly experienced team with a great depth of knowledge in industrial coatings,
which will complement the expertise that Brand has in access and insulation. We
have worked together as partners on industrial jobs for several years and look
forward to being on the same team."
