Doka's shareholding in the American scaffolding manufacturer AT-PAC creates a strong global unit that combines international sales strength with decade-long know-how in scaffolding. In the future, Doka will act as a full supplier of formwork solutions AND scaffolding across both sales and rental segments.
"With this strategic partnership we offer much more than just scaffolding. We are now offering - as we have been doing in the formwork sector for decades - well thought-out scaffolding solutions and services to our customers", says Doka CEO Harald Ziebula.
Jeff Davis - CEO of AT-PAC on the shareholding:
"With Doka we have a strong partner in the construction industry. This strategic partnership means that Doka’s customers can benefit above all from the fact that they get everything from a single source".
Ringlock – More than just scaffolding
In addition to high-quality designs and global availability of Ringlock, customers will especially benefit from a comprehensive digital construction management service. This ensures transparency, optimum coordination of all resources and greater economic efficiency. Doka's international network also enables a faster, localised response to individual customer requirements.
Doka now stands for formwork AND scaffolding
With the strategic partnership with AT-PAC, Doka is entering the international scaffolding market alongside its proven formwork business model. This is a major milestone in Doka's growth strategy, as it opens up previously untapped market and customer segments of the industrial sector. Doka CEO, Harald Ziebula said:
"This complements the formwork perfectly and gives us a further pillar. This business field is more constant and offers continuous growth opportunities".
