The management team of Thermodial has completed the 100 per cent buyout of the Dublin-based building services company, backed with a loan from Permanent TSB.
The company, which operates in the commercial heating, ventilation and air-conditioning sector, now plans to increase turnover by 30 per cent to €13 million and grow employee numbers to more than 100 people by 2026.
The first phase of the buyout, for 55 per cent of the company, was undertaken in 2016 with a loan from Ulster Bank.
The company was established in 1986 and is led by managing director Turlough Kinane.
