Tunnel Support is a growing company with strong profitability and a modern fleet consisting of machines from high-quality OEMs. Renta’s objective, together with the management of Tunnel Support, is to seek further growth in the rental of specialised tunnelling machines, while also capturing cross-selling synergies between the Company and Renta’s general rental operations.

The acquisition was completed on 31 October 2024.
