Eurofins acquires Maser in bid for European expansion

The Luxembourg-based testing laboratories company Eurofins Scientific has come to terms to acquire Dutch failure and reliability expert Maser Eingeering. As part of the agreement, Maser’s Dutch operations remain in place with its CEO Thijs Kempers continuing his role. In addition to its customers in the Netherlands, the merger will help open Maser to the international markets, particularly within Eurofins Materials & Engineering Sciences business line.

Holding similar philosophies on reliability testing, the unification aims to help grow in the European semiconductor and electronic systems industry, while building on a strong reputation of flexibility, reliability and responsiveness to customer needs. “I’m committed to creating continuity for both our customers and our employees and to opening up positive development opportunities for Maser’s employees,” says Kempers. “Our expansion plans are in progress and I’m very confident about Maser’s future.”
