Maja Voss, Director of the Tintometer® Group of Companies:
“We are pleased to announce that with effect from 12th March 2015 Droptestkits.com T/A DTK Water has been acquired by The Tintometer Ltd. in UK. This purchase is a further demonstration of our long-term commitment to the expansion and improvement of our core areas, Water and Colour Analysis, and we believe our customers, the entire group, and our partners will benefit from this acquisition. By combining the skills base, products and industry knowledge of our two companies we will be able to offer a greater range of products and services for both domestic and international customers.
