QMG Further Strengthens Its Sprinkler Expertise – PaloControl Joins Quattroservices

Quattroservices Oy, the largest subsidiary of QMG, is once again expanding its sprinkler expertise by acquiring the business operations of PaloControl Oy. With this acquisition, Quattroservices now employs over 200 professionals in electrical and HVAC contracting.

Quattroservices specializes in demanding installations projects and operates in the Helsinki metropolitan area and Kanta-Häme region. A year ago, the company acquired the business of sprinkler contractor Operio Oy, and now the expertise is further enhanced with the resources of PaloControl Oy.

Contracting Strengthened by Maintenance Services

Quattroservices’ sprinkler expertise will double as PaloControl entrepreneurs Tarmo Granholm and Ville Kulmala, along with 12 fitters, join the existing 15-member HVAC team.

The acquisition supports QMG’s strategy of growing its service business, as the expanded resources enable the company to offer not only sprinkler installations but also a wider range of maintenance services.

“With this addition, we are better equipped to meet the growing demand for sprinkler maintenance services. The professionals from PaloControl bring valuable experience and resources to our team,” says Mikael Forsblom, Head of HVAC at Quattroservices.

Reuniting Sprinkler Professionals

Founded in 2018, PaloControl is a company specializing in sprinkler installations and maintenance, with an established customer base among property owners and contractors in Southern Finland.

“We have over 25 years of experience with sprinkler systems, including complex projects. By consistently delivering high-quality and reliable work, we’ve built a loyal customer base. Now, as part of Quattroservices, we’re able to serve them with even stronger capabilities,” says Tarmo Granholm, CEO of PaloControl.

According to PaloControl’s founders, joining a larger group brings significant benefits to both the company and its employees. Quattroservices is also home to familiar faces from earlier in their careers.

“We’ve collaborated with many companies in the field over the years. When the opportunity arose to join forces with Quattroservices, it felt like a natural step forward. Now we can take on larger projects, offer our team more opportunities for development, and further expand our sprinkler maintenance services. It’s also great to be working again with former colleagues,” Granholm adds.

In recent years, Quattroservices has been involved in several major projects, including Finlandia Hall, Maatulli School, Women’s Hospital, Ahvenisto Hospital, and the Jorvi Hospital renovation. The company is currently installing sprinkler systems in the main building, underground facilities, and new Ohkola building of the extensive Laakso Joint Hospital project. PaloControl’s expertise and resources will support both ongoing and future projects.

As part of the acquisition, Tarmo Granholm and Ville Kulmala will join the owner program of Nimlas Group, the parent company of QMG.
