Bewator divests Cale Access and focuses on Access Security

“Cale Access has been a very successful operation within our group and has shown consistent high growth. It is now a well established and self-contained group and can benefit further from a strong and independent industrial owner like Mellby Gard” says Bo Kastensson, CEO of Bewator.
Cale Access, founded in 1955 and specialized in products for parking, has become one of the leading suppliers of advanced and flexible pay & display terminals in the world with subsidiaries in Norway, United Kingdom, Canada and Germany.
“Over the last few years Cale Access has established own subsidiaries in key markets and built a market position where our products are installed in about 40 countries around the world,” says Torkel Härdeman, MD of Cale Access. “New applications and technology create new market opportunities for our products and advanced management systems. We are very pleased to have Mellby Gard as owners and it will strengthen our possibilities to capture these opportunities.”
Anders Bülow, MD Mellby Gard Industri AB, says: “Cale Access is an attractive company that has developed strongly since it became part of the Bewator Group in 1997. It has a solid base to capitalise on and we are look-ing forward to co-operate with the management of Cale Access for the further development of the company.”
Bo Kastensson concludes, “Bewator and Cale Access are two companies with strong market positions in their respective industry and this agreement enables us to focus on our respective core business.”
