elobau has acquired Hamburg-based startup recalm through an asset deal. Recalm develops audio, voice and active noise-cancelling systems for off-highway and industrial applications. The companies previously collaborated on recalm's ANCOR headrest, a retrofit system that reduces vehicle noise in heavy machinery cabins without requiring headphones whilst enabling hands-free calling and radio communication. Recalm will become a subsidiary within the ensian group, whilst production operations transfer to elobau's Leutkirch facility, expected to begin in June. The acquisition expands elobau's portfolio in sensor technology and human-machine interaction, combining recalm's audio technologies with elobau's existing expertise in sensors and operating systems. The move strengthens elobau's position as a solution provider for modern machine operation.
