Spectris has acquired CAS Clean Air Service, a Swiss cleanroom services business, for an undisclosed amount. The business generates sales of approximately £7m, the majority of which from services. CAS will be integrated into Particle Measuring Systems (PMS) within the Materials Analysis division, but remain a distinct service brand. Management expects strong growth once CAS is able to leverage the expertise available within PMS. We do not expect the acquisition to have a material effect on our forecasts.
