GENIVAR Acquires Zenix, an Ontario Engineering Firm
GENIVAR is pleased to announce the acquisition of Zenix Engineering Ltd., (“Zenix”), an Ottawa-based firm specialising in building services such as envelope design and roofing, fire and life safety, code review, security, interior design, and architecture, as well as mechanical-electrical and structural design. With this acquisition, GENIVAR now has over 550 employees in its Ontario offices.
By acquiring Zenix, we are not only able to expand our expertise in the building market in Ontario; we are able to add new expertise such as fire and life safety and interior design, among others.
Their integrated team approach and focus on building science and asset management will prove to be tremendous assets to GENIVAR. The sustainable design market is very active right now and ZENIX will provide a significant boost as we reinforce our existing LEED services across Canada.
