Atlas Copco finalizes the sale of its stationary generator business

December 7, 2005

Stockholm, Sweden, December 7, 2005: Atlas Copco has finalized the sale of assets related to its stationary generator business to the Italian company Pramac Lifter S.p.A.

The divestment includes the right to produce and distribute stationary generators under the brand Masons Power Generation. Pramac will also during a time limited transition period hold the right to sell the stationary generators under the Atlas Copco brand, with some geographical exceptions. 28 jobs were affected by the divestment. Atlas Copco will keep and continue to develop its portable generator business, which fits naturally with the portable compressors. This business is a part of the Portable Air division within the Compressor Technique business area.
