Trescal announces three acquisitions in Belgium, France and Brazil

Trescal has acquired three companies: LBT Testing and Calibration, near Brussels; C2M in Rouen; and Metrology in Vitoria. These acquisitions will add circa €3m turnover to the group.

Founded in 1992 in Louvain-la-Neuve, near Brussels, LBT provides in-house and on-site BELAC accredited calibration services as well as validation services to the Life Sciences Industry and employs 16 people. Its technical expertise covers climatic, carbon dioxide incubator calibration, humidity and temperature. The manager Roland Platteau will remain with Trescal to pursue the development and the integration of the company within Trescal Group.

Metrology, based in Vitoria, is one of the two private owned laboratories delivering accredited calibration in the state of Espirito Santo and employs eight people. This acquisition expands Trescal’s technical and geographical footprint and consolidates the Group’s leadership over the Brazilian metrology services marketplace. Filippe Aderne Maia who currently runs the company will remain in his position.

The C2M team of four people integrates the Trescal Rouen branch bringing their expertise in electrical, temperature, humidity and pressure calibration as well as their know-how in first level repair.

These are the 9th, 10th and 11th acquisitions since the change of ownership to Omers in April 2018.
