ENEXIO Management GmbH (formerly GEA Heat Exchangers ), based in Herne, is a system manufacturer that produces cooling systems for the process and power plant industry as well as components for water and wastewater treatment. The company was founded in 1920 as GEA (society for dedusting systems). After the merger with Metallgesellschaft to form the GEA Group in 1999 and the spin-off of significant parts of the former GEA into GEA Heat Exchangers, GEA Heat Exchangers was sold in 2014 to the investor Triton Partners , who split the company into several companies: the area of ​​cooling systems for air-cooled condensers , Cooling towers and their service, as well as the area of ​​water treatment will be set up under the name Enexio.

history

The activities of today's company go back to 1935 as Otto Happel, in collaboration with the engineer Dr. Kurt Lang, developed air-cooled condensers for stationary steam turbines and thus laid the foundation stone of the GEA company. In 1999, GEA was bought by mg technologies (successor to Metallgesellschaft), which was renamed the GEA Group in 2005 . In 2010, GEA Group bundled its entire heat exchanger activities in one segment ("HX" or GEA Heat Exchangers). In 2014, GEA Heat Exchangers was acquired by Triton Partners. Triton then split the company into several companies: The process and power plant cooling tower division will be continued separately and independently of one another under the worldwide registered trademark ENEXIO. The other segments of the former GEA Heat Exchangers Group work under the names DencoHappel and Kelvion . On June 29, 2017, the outstanding brand management since its introduction on November 30, 2015 in the "Machines & Engineering" category was recognized by the German Design Council as the "German Brand Award Winner 2017".
