The Burkhalter Group has acquired Caotec SA, based in Brusio, which specialises in heating, ventilation, air conditioning and sanitation technology (HVAC). The acquisition of Caotec SA will enable the Burkhalter Group to provide HVAC services in the Upper and Lower Engadine and Valposchiavo regions in future.
According to a statement, the acquisition is also part of the Burkhalter Group’s targeted acquisition strategy, which already saw it acquire Gattiker Elektro GmbH in Uster, Canton of Zurich, and Mathieu Ingenieure AG in Visp, Canton of Valais, in 2025.
The newly acquired Caotec AG employs 17 people and most recently generated annual sales of around CHF 4.9 million. The company will continue to operate as an independent group company of Burkhalter Holding AG under the current management of Dario Cao. The name Caotec SA will be retained and all employees will be taken on.
