SeeSound strengthens its presence in public address and voice evacuation with the acquisition of UDE.

SeeSound has announced the acquisition of Unión Desarrollos Electrónicos (UDE), a company with over 30 years of experience in the development and manufacturing of industrial audio, public address and voice evacuation systems.

The transaction represents a strategic step for SeeSound, which seeks to integrate new technical capabilities and strengthen its presence in critical sectors such as transportation, hospitals, industry, and large infrastructures.

Founded in Sant Joan Despí (Barcelona), UDE has established itself as a national benchmark in the design of public address and industrial audio systems. Its catalog includes everything from speakers and amplifiers to voice evacuation systems certified under EN54-16, such as the UDEVAC-500 and UDEVAC-6000, essential in installations that prioritize safety. Its solutions are present in airports, railway stations, hospitals, and large retail spaces, providing reliability and regulatory compliance.

Adding UDE means integrating capabilities that allow us to respond to increasingly complex projects. Their experience in critical environments and their track record in product development complement our global solutions approach,  explains Nacho Alberdi, CEO of SeeSound. 

Alberdi highlights that the operation responds to the need to adapt to an audiovisual market that increasingly demands customized and technologically advanced solutions.

Jordi Boix, general manager of UDE, celebrates the step: “This union allows us to grow and explore new markets without losing our essence. We remain as a brand, as a team and with the same vocation to offer quality public address and voice evacuation solutions, which is our strength”.

The transaction will allow UDE to continue operating from its headquarters in Sant Joan Despí with its current staff, maintaining the autonomy of its design and manufacturing processes. The alliance with SeeSound also strengthens the distribution and technical support of its products, boosting innovation and access to new markets.
