Daikin to buy US filter company?

JAPAN: Japanese air conditioner manufacturer Daikin is reported to be negotiating the purchase of a US-based filter supplier.

Nikkei’s Asian Review is reporting that Daikin’s bid for unnamed air filter supplier in California could be confirmed as early as next month.
