SWEDEN/AUSTRALIA: Wholesaler Beijer Ref has entered into an agreement to acquire 100% of Armcor Air Solutions, a Victoria-based manufacturer and supplier of HVAC equipment.

Established in 1978, Armcor is specialised in energy efficient fresh air solutions and energy-recovery systems. The company has 37 employees and has a good profitability with annual sales of approximately SEK105m (US$12.2m). The company’s main facility is based in Broadmeadows, Victoria.
