Today, Ecoland International, Inc. announced that they signed a letter of intent to acquire D&R Technology. According to the terms of the letter, D&R shareholders would receive shares of Ecoland with D&R management staying in place.
D&R Technology is a producer of automated tube processing systems for the automotive industry, handling design and manufacturing of said systems. D&R products are used by three of the top ten automotive part suppliers in the world. The company also provides custom-built tooling, process development, production support, and preventive maintenance.
Ecoland is interested in D&R from a growth standpoint. The goal for D&R is to continue improving efficiency with shortened production time, utilizing complete and partially automated systems. Ecoland sees D&R as being capable of staying competitive in terms of reaching total automation in their production systems.
David Wallace, CEO of Ecoland International, said, “We are truly excited about the recent proposed transaction as we feel D&R is positioned for rapid revenue growth and strong profitability as the Company’s technology is clearly applicable to a number of huge multi-billion markets, including automobile manufacturing, aircraft, large construction equipment, die cutting and other industries requiring robotic fabrication of precision metal components. The main stimulus for this acquisition was the tremendous growth potential of the D&R brand and the strong demand for such products associated with this brand. We also inherit the proven revenues, sales experience and the existing business relationships of D&R.”
