Legrand acquires Girtz Industries

Legrand has acquired Girtz Industries, a provider of custom-engineered modular power enclosures and related services based in Monticello, Indiana, USA.

Girtz Industries develops and integrates complete power systems that support the provision of critical power across datacentre, industrial and commercial applications. The company employs more than 300 people and generated annual revenue of nearly US$80mn 2025.

Following the acquisition, Girtz Industries will operate as a business unit within Legrand’s Electrical Wiring Systems division, led by Ravi Ramanathan. David Girtz, who has served as president and CEO of Girtz Industries for nearly 40 years, will continue to lead the business and team, reporting to Ramanathan.

“Girtz Industries’ modular power and generator solutions are indispensable to industries that require critical back-up power or off-grid, behind-the-meter primary power options,” stated Brian DiBella, president and CEO, Legrand, North and Central America. “Legrand is a growth company focused on reaching €15 billion in revenue globally by 2030. To help meet that goal, we continue to acquire businesses that meet global needs, including energy transition and datacenter expansion. Adding Girtz Industries to our portfolio is a natural next step for us. We are extending our reach along the power chain by adding support for power generation and redundancy. This complements our existing portfolio of power quality, power distribution, and cable management solutions, which helps us continually evolve and improve the lives of our customers.”

David Girtz added: “For our hundreds of employees, and for our customers, today is a great day in our impressive journey. Since 1963, Girtz Industries has built and maintained a reputation for providing high-quality, reliable products backed by an expertly qualified and reliable team. Our teams take a lot of pride in the fact that precision engineering has always been a mainstay of the Girtz brand. Now, backed by Legrand’s financial strength, Girtz Industries will be able to further invest in our people and facilities within our local community, while also increasing capacity for production and testing services at an accelerated rate.
