Following the acquisition of Hydro-Lek, Saab Seaeye has announced that the Hydro-Lek business has now been transferred to Fareham and is fully operational.
Effective from January 1, 2016, the combined companies will operate under the Saab Seaeye name. The Hydro-Lek brand will remain and customers can still reach Hydro-Lek sales and operation staff who are now based at Fareham.
“We would like to reassure our valued customers that our services will not be adversely affected by the move – on the contrary, by tapping into Saab Seaeye’s technical and operational expertise, Hydro-Lek’s products and services will be further enhanced,” says Hydro-Lek operations manager, Colin Barton.
Saab Seaeye sees the move bringing greater product content to the company and represents an important step in the company’s growth strategy.
“There is a strong technology synergy,” says Saab Seaeye’s managing director, Jon Robertson. “Manipulators and tools are key elements in the design and function of underwater vehicles and integrating Hydro-Lek into our operation at Fareham means we can fully direct our technological expertise, operational resources and service support towards advancing the Hydro-Lek technology.”
