Valtor Offshore is a distributor of API and ASME valves, actuators and process-related equipment, including valve automation to the offshore industry. The company has three business areas within the flow technology: MRO sales, projects and services.

Headquartered in Sweden, Armatec is a flow technology company which solves technical challenges in water, heating, cooling and processes, with product groups including valves, separators, actuators, expansion vessels and storage tanks. It operates in Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland and is a portfolio company of Ernströmgruppen, a privately owned industrial conglomerate.

ERIKS is an international industrial services provider offering a wide range of high quality mechanical engineering components and associated technical and logistics services. The company offers its products and services to the industrial end user based on its expertise in technology, its broad and deep knowledge of market developments, product properties, product applications, product processing, logistics and its state-of-the-art infrastructure. As part of a global focus on its core business, ERIKS strategically decided to divest its subsidiaries in Denmark.

Oaklins' team in Denmark advised ERIKS in connection with the divestiture of Dansk Ventil Center and Valtor Offshore to Armatec. Oaklins' team in the Netherlands has a long-standing relationship with ERIKS' executive management and brought on board the Danish team who executed the transaction, from identifying selected potential buyers to final negotiations.
