On Wednesday 6 April 2016, the Danish Competition and Consumer Authority has commenced an investigation of Hansson & Knudsen A/S and of other companies in the industry. The purpose is to investigate whether the companies may be involved in restrictive trade practices on the civil engineering market.
The Aarsleff Group acquired the shares in Hansson & Knudsen in Odense effective from 13 January 2016.
The company will endeavour to collaborate constructively in the investigation with the Danish Competition and Consumer Authority with a view to finalising the investigation as soon as possible.
Povl Christensen, general manager of Hansson & Knudsen says: ”We find it very important to comply with the competition laws, and we are not of the opinion that we have been involved in restrictive trade practices. We will do our utmost to contribute to a fast completion of the matter".
