Legrand announced the acquisition of Girtz Industries, a provider of custom-engineered modular power enclosures and related services based in Monticello, Indiana. The acquisition expands Legrand’s capabilities in power generation and redundancy solutions serving datacenter, industrial, and commercial applications.
Founded in 1963, Girtz Industries develops and integrates complete power systems designed to provide reliable critical power. The company employs more than 300 people and generated nearly $80 million in revenue in 2025.
Following the transaction, Girtz Industries will operate as a business unit within Legrand’s Electrical Wiring Systems division, led by Ravi Ramanathan. David Girtz, who has served as President and CEO of Girtz Industries for nearly four decades, will continue to lead the business and report to Ramanathan.
Legrand said the acquisition aligns with its goal of reaching €15 billion in global revenue by 2030. The company views Girtz’s modular power and generator capabilities as complementary to its existing portfolio of power quality, power distribution, and cable management solutions. The addition also strengthens Legrand’s position in markets benefiting from energy transition trends and the continued expansion of datacenters.
According to Legrand, increasing demand for critical backup power and behind-the-meter power generation solutions is reshaping the energy landscape, creating opportunities for integrated power infrastructure offerings.
Girtz Industries plans to leverage Legrand’s resources to increase production and testing capacity, invest in its workforce and facilities, and accelerate innovation across a broader set of applications.
Legrand, a global specialist in electrical and digital building infrastructures, reported €9.5 billion in sales in 2025 and serves residential, commercial, and datacenter markets worldwide.
