Fred Bentley, CEO of DexKo Global, said: “We are very pleased that Nordelettronica is now part of the DexKo family. The company is characterized by its flexibility and providing electronics solutions targeted to its customers’ needs. Nordelettronica is an ideal fit with DexKo and will further improve our product range and service to customers.”

Harald Hiller, president and CEO of AL-KO said: "The acquisition of Nordelettronica enhances our product portfolio in the RV electronics sector. Together with CBE, we will build on many years of know-how and expertise to provide our combined customer base with reliable, high-performance products.”

Meanwhile, Luciano Rizzioli, founder of Nordelettronica, added: “It was important for the Nordelettronica shareholders to find strong partners in DexKo and AL-KO to support the continued growth of the business. I would like to thank the management team for the energy and passion they have invested in building the Nordelettronica brand, and I am confident that our customers will benefit from the combination with DexKo.”
