SH Group

Established in 1974, SH Group A/S is a Danish company specializing in the development, production, and servicing of hydraulic and mechanical system solutions. Headquartered in Svendborg, Denmark, the firm operates in the offshore, marine, and defense sectors, providing engineered handling solutions. The company's business model is centered on delivering custom-designed equipment and comprehensive after-sales service, including overhauls, modifications, repairs, and maintenance. Revenue is generated through the sale of these highly specialized products and ongoing service contracts to a global client base, with a significant market presence in northern Europe.

Significant milestones include the 2012 acquisition of the Norwegian firm Sepro, enhancing its subsea handling capabilities, and a strategic entry into the defense market in 2021 with the introduction of "The Cube System," a flexible, containerized multi-mission module technology. This move into defense was a key development during its partnership with private equity fund BWB Partners, which began in August 2012. In September 2024, the private equity fund Mentha Capital acquired SH Group from BWB Partners, aiming to accelerate growth, particularly within the defense industry. The current executive team, including CEO Kaare Vang Jensen, continues to lead the company.

SH Group's core offerings include custom deck equipment, systems for subsea handling operations, and specialized solutions for the defense industry. Products such as the Sepro™ line and the Cube™ multi-mission modules showcase the firm's integration of hydraulic, mechanical, and electrical systems. The company serves clients in the energy, marine electrification, and defense industries, offering a single point of contact for streamlined communication and service delivery. With in-house engineering and production facilities, SH Group manages the entire process from design and manufacturing to installation and certification, holding an ISO9001:2015 certification.
