Irish Company’s Operations Unchanged Following Acquisition

Trading at Eurolec Instrumentation has maintained its normal routine following integration into global instrumentation group Scientific Measurements Pte Ltd, parent company to Cirrus Research and Acoustic Instruments International and which has more than 40 years’ experience in the sector.

Eurolec as a brand and trading name will continue with the company’s existing head office remaining in Dundalk, County Louth. Its chain of distributors will also be unaffected.

Coinciding with the handover, Eurolec founder and Managing Director Tom Mears will be retiring after a five-decade career in the sector and 19 years since establishing the company. Chris Mears has been appointed the new MD, formerly heading up the company’s sales & marketing. The rest of the Eurolec team has remained unchanged by the buy-out said the company.

“This is a new chapter for the company but we have inherited a strong legacy from Tom and a great platform to build upon,” said Daren Wallis, Scientific Measurements Director.

“Scientific Measurements as a company has an unrivalled track record of innovation and product development and we want to put that experience into play with Eurolec’s temperature and pressure gauge products. The ranges are an ideal fit for our current product portfolio and the Eurolec team will be able to enjoy the added benefits of our R&D and global sales & marketing team behind them.”
