Details of the transaction have not been released but the two companies, which have been business partners since 1978 through Nakashima’s exclusive BMS distribution rights, will continue to operate under their existing identities.
“This is perfect timing for joining forces with Nakashima as they are market leader for propellers and we are market leader in high-efficiency rudders and energy saving devices,” declared Dirk Lehmann, BMS managing director, at an online press conference today.
Lehmann said that the combination of a Mewis Duct, a propeller and a rudder would enable the supply of a complete package. He said that Becker’s battery technology could also make a difference to Nakashima’s thruster designs as well as the development of propeller energy saving packages.
