PBE acquire Mine Radio Systems

Pyott-Boone Electronics (PBE) has aquired Mine Radio Systems (MRS), a supplier of communication systems that improve efficiency, safety and productivity in the mining and tunnelling industries.

All of the products, people and intellectual property of the MRS business will immediately transfer to PBE’s ownership.

Ken Morrell, president of MRS, said, “When we started this process we were looking for a business that could successfully merge the long history of MRS and elevate it to a new level. The positive consultative process with PBE suggested a considerable upside for the combined businesses.”

Stuart Champion de Crespigny, CEO of PBE, said, “MRS is a perfect fit for PBE as a reliable communications solutions provider with an impressive and diverse global footprint. The acquisition solidifies our commitment to customer-oriented global sales and local service.”
