The French company has undergone major changes in its shareholders but its strategy remains unchanged: Trescal,... Trescalspecializing in metrology services, continues its relentless drive for external growth. It has just acquired the British company Antech Engineering (€2.8 million), giving it 9 laboratories in the UK with a workforce of 400 and sales of €32.6 million.
After the acquisition of American Dynamic Technology Inc. (DTI) in January 2011, the acquisition ofAntech Engineering is Trescal since its LBO operation in 2010 (financial investors 3i and TCR Capital joined the capital).
Remember that Trescal comes fromAir Liquide. The group, which gave it its current name in 2004, had the ambition of making it a global player in metrology. It steadily strengthened the company through external growth, before selling it to Astorg in 2007, which pursued the same policy. A further change of structure in 2010 did not call this policy into question. Today, we Trescal has 55 laboratories, 1,400 employees and consolidated sales of 132 million euros.
