Dr. Hoffmann Facility Services Group, an investment of Beyond Capital Partners, acquires Neue Raumpflege Gebäude-Dienstleistungs-GmbH and strengthens its market position

November 2024
Frankfurt am Main

Beyond Capital Partners Fund II, a fund advised by the investment company Beyond Capital Partners GmbH (“BCP”), has acquired 100% of the shares in NR Neue Raumpflege Gebäude-Dienstleistungs-GmbH (“NR“) based in Freising near Munich via its portfolio company Dr. Hoffmann Facility Services Group GmbH (“Dr. Hoffmann“). Following the acquisitions of Gebäudereinigung Daniel Baumann GmbH (“GDB”) in November 2022, Clamex Gebäudereinigung GmbH (“Clamex”) in June 2023 and S&M Services GmbH (“S&M”) in December 2023, Dr. Hoffmann is further expanding its market position and continues its growth path in Germany. The closing took place in November 2024.

NR is an experienced facility services provider in the greater Munich area and, with over 150 employees, takes care of 92 properties with professional and certified infrastructural services, from individual service concepts, maintenance and special cleaning to glass and façade cleaning and winter services.

Dr. Hoffmann was founded in 1989 by Dr. Rainer Hoffmann and services with over 3,500 employees clients in the public sector as much as large companies in 190 cities and municipalities across Germany in the areas of facility management, cleaning and maintenance, outdoor facility maintenance, security services and feel-good services. Individual cleaning concepts, state-of-the-art cleaning equipment, sustainable products and the highest quality standards characterize Dr. Hoffmann’s service portfolio.

Since September 2024, Industriereinigung Dr. Hoffmann Gebäudedienste GmbH has been operating on the market with the new name Dr. Hoffmann Facility Services Group as well as a new corporate design and a relaunch of the company website. The name change reflects not only the expanded service portfolio, but also the company’s claim to act as a holistic provider of facility services and solutions. Furthermore, the name change symbolizes the group structure that the company has created.

Anton Linseisen, Managing Director of Neue Raumpflege Gebäude-Dienstleistungs-GmbH: “Our quality and environmental management system complies with international standards and our employees are regularly trained. Services are provided by people for people and so we attach great importance to quality and the appreciative treatment of our employees. We are very pleased to be part of the Dr. Hoffmann Group who shares our values.”

“With the acquisition of Neue Raumpflege Gebäude-Dienstleistungs-GmbH, we are strengthening our presence in southern Germany, expanding our customer base in the private and public sectors and extending our service portfolio. We warmly welcome Anton Linseisen and his team,” says Steffen Kleinhenz-Sonnenschein, Managing Director of the Dr. Hoffmann Facility Services Group.

Christoph D. Kauter, Founder and Managing Partner of Beyond Capital Partners: “The market for facility services is highly fragmented and driven by the increasing demand for professional services and high hygiene standards. With Dr. Hoffmann, we implemented from the beginning a dedicated buy & build growth strategy to become one of the leading providers of high-quality and sustainable facility services in Germany. The focus is on the continuous development of new commercial clients as well as further acquisitions of successful and profitable facility services companies under the umbrella of Dr. Hoffmann.”

Holger Grelck Forstbaumschulen is one of the leading German forest nurseries for the cultivation of premium forest seedlings and grows many millions of seedlings annually on more than 100 hectares, on which a wide range of tree species, including sweet chestnut, oak, spruce, service tree and Douglas fir, are nursed. The forest tree nursery has been supplying municipalities, states as well as other nurseries and private forest owners since 1938 and has grown continuously in recent years. Our location in Halstenbek is the largest forest tree nursery region in Germany and is considered the “cradle of the forest” due to the fertile soil and optimal microclimatic conditions.

Forest tree nurseries are an important subgroup of tree nurseries and operate around 12% of Germany’s total tree nursery area. Overall, forest nurseries play a central role in the fight against climate change, as they are an integral part of the reforestation of German forests. At the same time, they enable companies to become more sustainable and achieve climate targets. Demand for seedlings for forestry plants has risen accordingly. The German forest relieves the atmosphere of 62 million tons of CO2 every year.

The aim is to further accelerate the impressive growth of Holger Grelck Forstbaumschulen together with Beyond Capital Partners and to continue its expansion through selective acquisitions.
