April 11, 2007, Callenberg Engineering,
Inc., a member of the Callenberg Group
located in Miami, Florida, and specialized

contracting, and spare parts sales,
agreed to acquire the activities of

Combining the activities of Dynamic
Marine with Callenberg’s creates

that Dynamic Marine brings to Callenberg
Engineering will considerably improve
our position as a key strategic supply
partner for our customers,”
states Fred Sorensen, Callenberg’s
Vice President of Purchasing, Sales
& Logistics.
“We think that this acquisition
is the ultimate win-win situation
for our suppliers, ourselves, and
most of all for our customers,”
states David Folic, Vice President
of Dynamic Marine Electric, Inc. “I
look to the future with optimism,
and very much look forward to joining
the Callenberg family and the task
I will have to build the lighting
pillar of their business.”

in Sweden, is one of the leading suppliers
of electrical, automation and HVAC
systems to the marine and offshore
