Atlas Copco Compressors, Inc. Release date: October 7, 2008
Atlas Copco Compressors has announced the launch of a U.S.-based Custom Design Center, formalizing the specialized compressor solution division that was created through Atlas Copco's 2006 acquisition of Tide-Air.
The new Atlas Copco Custom Design Center, which is based in Houston, employs 25 people who specialize in customizing compressors and packaging solutions of all sizes for special applications. The creation of this division continues the tradition of service that Tide-Air has been providing to customers across a broad spectrum of industries since 1971.
"The Tide-Air acquisition has provided tremendous opportunities for us both in terms of our product capabilities and the development of our people, and we felt the time was right to rebrand our business inline with the Atlas Copco group," said Rob Ryan, vice president engineered products for Atlas Copco Custom Design. "The talents of Atlas Copco Custom Design combined with the products and worldwide service capabilities of Atlas Copco provide us with a real competitive advantage."
The birth of Atlas Copco Custom Design in the United States is the latest in a development of Atlas Copco Custom Design centers across the globe, including locations in the U.K., Belgium, India and Brazil. Atlas Copco Custom Design in Houston will keep the identifier "formally Tide-Air" under its new operating name for the next six to 12 months to help in transitioning from Tide-Air, a highly respected name within the oil and gas industry, as well as other markets.
"Atlas Copco Custom Design, formerly Tide-Air, has been a tremendous acquisition for Atlas Copco in the United States," commented Paul Hense, president of Atlas Copco Compressors in the U.S. "The expertise they have demonstrated in providing customers with customized packages has provided real value for both our customers and the Atlas Copco company."
As part of this new process a complete new capabilities brochure will be available in the near future for Atlas Copco customers.
