Trescal, the specialist in metrology services, extends its geographical coverage in the Asia-Pacific region with the acquisition of Korea Testing Instruments Calibration Center (KTICC) in South Korea and IPAC Solutions in Australia, strengthens its presence in Brazil with Instituto Amazonense de Metrologia, and adds competence in non-contact 3D measurement with the acquisition of Physical Digital in the UK.
"These acquisitions reflect our strategy of supporting our customers around the world; our aim is to triple in size in the Asia-Pacific region by 2022 and continue to consolidate our presence in North America."says Guillaume Caroit, Managing Director of Trescal.
