CGS from Sweden ties up with the ETAP group

Since 2003 CGS in Göteborg is exclusive distributor for ETAP lighting in Sweden. The emphasis has been mostly on the energy efficient lighting solutions and on the architectural emergency lighting with LEDs.

ETAP lighting and emergency lighting is in the past years successfully applied in various Swedish projects like Mölnlycke Centrum, World Trade Center Malmö, H&M, Gränby Centrum, Kemicentrum and the hospital of Helsingborg. Therefore it is a logical step for CGS to tie up with the ETAP group. ETAP has now a majority stake in CGS. By doing this CGS and its customers can fully profit from the ETAP facilities and competences.

Managing Director of CGS Marcus Sporre: “For us this is a unique growth opportunity. Our clients will benefit from shorter communication lines, and a direct relation with the manufacturer offers more guarantees and stability”. Wim Sliepenbeek, international sales director of ETAP ads to this: “For ETAP this is a logical step to strengthen our market position. CGS is a healthy company with a thorough knowledge of the ETAP products, an excellent reputation, a good order portfolio and a good prognosis for the future.”

To improve the recognition CGS will from now on be active under the name “ETAP Belysning AB”.
