Presto acquires Arrper, establishing its own fire protection platform in the Canary Islands

Eurofesa, part of Presto Group (“Presto”), Europe’s leading provider of fire protection, first aid and safety training, has incorporated the business activity and team of Arrper Instalaciones Contra Incendios, S.L. (“Arrper”), a fire protection installation and maintenance company based in Tenerife, Spain.

The acquisition gives Eurofesa its own established platform in the Canary Islands, with operations on Tenerife and Gran Canaria. With its own local teams in place, Eurofesa is better positioned to serve national customers with the same service and quality across all of Spain, the islands included.

Founded in 2010 in Tacoronte, Tenerife, Arrper provides installation and maintenance of fire protection systems. Maintenance accounts for the majority of the business, providing a solid base of recurring customer relationships. Arrper has been Eurofesa’s trusted partner in the Canary Islands for many years, and the two companies know each other’s teams and ways of working well.

“We have worked side by side with Arrper for many years and know the team and the quality of their work very well. Arrper gives us our own strong platform in the Canary Islands, so that we can serve our national customers – not least in the hotel sector – directly with our own people. We are very happy to welcome the whole team,” says David López, General Manager of Eurofesa.

“Joining Eurofesa and Presto is a natural continuation of a long and successful collaboration. As part of a larger group, we can offer our customers an even broader range of services, with the same local presence and commitment they know us for,” say Jose Miguel Cabrera and Rafael Arrimarlo, owners of Arrper.
