Intesis will maintain its current headquarters in Igualada and will continue to offer products for the home and building automation markets under its brands IntesisBox, IntesisHome and Houseinhand.

Staffan Dahlström, CEO of HMS, said: “Intesis has a strong position in the market for integration solutions for building automation that will complement HMS’s existing industrial gateways offering perfectly. Intesis will give HMS a strong footprint and valuable inroads into the market niche of building automation systems. Intesis is a well-established and highly regarded industry player who will further strengthen our unique value proposition to our OEM partners, system integrators and installers worldwide.”

The acquisition was completed on June 29th, 2016 on which date 100 percent of the shares in Intesis were acquired by HMS Industrial Networks AB directly from Intesis’ owners Pedro Lumbreras and José Cerón. Intesis’ current CEO, Cerón, will continue to serve the company as its general manager. Mr. Lumbreras will continue to advise Intesis as a consultant. Intesis will be consolidated into the HMS Group as of June 30, 2016.
