Laidlaw Solutions Ltd is delighted to announce the acquisition of the residual legacy cylinder system business of Ingersoll Rand. This will now be known as Laidlaw Locking Systems and will operate with the existing staff from a new manufacturing facility next to the Laidlaw Gateshead Sales Centre. In addition to producing cylinder products from the Primus, Briton, Assa and Evva ranges the acquisition will enable Laidlaw to develop its masterkeying and key control capabilities for both new and existing systems.
