The Austria-based manufacturer, which also owns the Radiac, Diamond Products and Bibielle brands, recently signed a deal that made it the majority shareholder of Australian company ATS (Abrasive Tools Specialists).

A wholesaler, importer and converter of abrasive tools and industrial trade products, ATS offers abrasive products both directly to the market and through a network of equipment dealers.

Thomas Frie脽, CEO of Tyrolit, said: 鈥淲e are thrilled about this strategic investment in ATS, which not only strengthens our foothold in the Australian market but also opens doors to new opportunities and industries. We look forward to integrating the strengths of both entities and further contributing to the success story鈥.聽聽

The deal aims to help Tyrolit strengthen its existing presence in the country鈥檚 construction market, and will also enable the manufacturer to upscale, increasing its customer base by making its products available through ATS鈥檚 business infrastructure.

Simon Parkinson, managing director of ATS says: 鈥淲e are really excited about the opportunities this presents for us as a company but even more so for our customers, who will benefit immensely of the expansion and the synergies.鈥
