Vicwest, through its Westeel division, has bought PTM Technology of Este, Italy. PTM engineers, designs and makes automated grain handling systems that complement Westeel’s grain storage systems.
“Though small in scale, this acquisition is transformational for Westeel in that it positions us as one of a few integrated, turn-key suppliers of core grain storage and handling systems in the world with full control over proprietary intellectual property,” said Vicwest president Colin Osborne.
