Transvac Systems Limited, an Alfreton-based supplier of ejector solutions and sustainable process technologies, has been acquired by Ingersoll Rand Inc, a New York Stock Exchange-listed provider of mission-critical flow creation and life science and industrial solutions.
Transvac’s systems are used globally in eradicating waste gas flaring, with growing traction in emerging sustainable industries such as desalination and clean water reuse.
The transaction sees Transvac join Ingersoll Rand’s Industrial Technologies and Services segment, strengthening Ingersoll Rand’s position in high-growth, sustainability-focused markets including energy recovery, wastewater treatment and desalination.
The acquisition enhances Ingersoll Rand’s ability to provide customers with a broader range of engineered solutions, including hybrid systems that combine ejectors and traditional technologies to optimise performance and efficiency. The transaction positions Ingersoll Rand to deliver complete, regionally manufactured vacuum and ejector systems tailored to demanding industrial applications.
Law firm Browne Jacobson advised Transvac’s shareholders on the deal. Nigel Blackwell, corporate partner, said: “We’re delighted to have advised the shareholders of Transvac Systems on this exciting transaction with Ingersoll Rand and we wish David and his team every success in the next phase of Transvac’s growth as part of Ingersoll Rand.”
Paul Hill, who heads up the Energy & Infrastructure sector group at Browne Jacobson, added: “Our recent research shows that there remains strong underlying demand for investment in sustainable technologies and critical infrastructure assets.
“Technological innovation is cited by 32% of sector respondents as a key strategy to drive inward investment, with significant focus on AI-driven efficiency improvements and digital infrastructure, areas where Transvac’s engineered solutions align perfectly with market priorities.”
