FLEXIM's headquarters in Berlin-Marzahn is being expanded into a center of excellence for ultrasonic flow measurement technology.

FLEXIM Flexible Industriemesstechnik GmbH

Emerson Electric Co. acquires FLEXIM Flexible Industriemesstechnik GmbH. Emerson is a global leader in innovative technology and software solutions for industrial automation. As a technology leader in the field of non-intrusive ultrasonic flow measurement, FLEXIM will become part of Emerson's Flow Measurement business unit. FLEXIM's headquarters in Berlin-Marzahn will be expanded into a center of excellence for ultrasonic flow measurement technology.

"With Emerson, we have a strong partner with whom we will jointly further expand our leading position in the growing global market for industrial ultrasonic flowmeters," says Jens Hilpert, co-founder of FLEXIM, about the sale: "Emerson and FLEXIM share the same culture of innovation and passion for advanced technological solutions."

FLEXIM ideally complements Emerson's flow portfolio, which to date includes Coriolis, differential pressure, electromagnetic, and vortex flow meters. The FLEXIM brand will be retained. Furthermore, the acquisition agreement includes guarantees for the preservation of locations and jobs: "We need the highly qualified and motivated employees of FLEXIM to advance ultrasonic flow measurement even further, both technically and commercially," emphasizes Jon Stokes, Group President Measurement Solutions at Emerson. FLEXIM's existing four shareholders will continue in their roles with the company.

Since its founding in 1990, FLEXIM has repeatedly set standards in the field of non-invasive flow measurement with ultrasound, and the quality of its products has contributed significantly to their acceptance in the market. Jens Hilpert is convinced: "As part of Emerson, we can focus on this core competence and secure the FLEXIM brand as a synonym for non-intrusive flow measurement with ultrasound in the long term."
