Industrial Physics acquires Torus Group.
Industrial Physics is set to acquire the quality control measurement systems and metrology expert, Torus Group. The test and measurement instrument provider has made the move to increase its ability to serve as a quality partner to customers across various key end markets. Barry Lyon, Chief Executive Officer of Torus Group, had previously outlined the company’s ambitions to grow in July 2023.
“Packaging innovators need reliable test and measurement solutions to navigate rapid development across the packaging industry today and ensure the quality and safety of their products. We are proud to be guiding customers with this across various end markets and remain active in sourcing opportunities to widen the range of our solutions,” commented Lyon on the announcement. “With more than 20 years of experience in the industry and localised support teams in place for customers across industries globally, Torus Group is a perfect addition to support our purpose: protecting the integrity of brands and products.”
The Torus Group had recently expanded into the plastic packaging and medical devices industries having already established itself in the food and beverages sector for the measurement of metal and rigid packaging. The acquisition allows Industrial Physics' customers greater access to a wider selection of solutions, including test and measurement equipment, metrology services and machine enclosure support.
“Joining Industrial Physics is an exciting opportunity for Torus Group. Our shared commitment to quality, safety, and innovation will deliver significant benefits for our customers,” said Chris Freshman, Group Director of Business Development for Torus Group. “With the acquisition now completed, we look forward to integrating with Industrial Physics’ global infrastructure to offer an even greater suite of measurement systems and localised support to our customers.”
