    Controls technology company Proserv Controls has announced the acquisition of the trade and assets of Dron & Dickson Electromechanical Contracting (DDEC) LLC, the Middle Eastern business of Dron & Dickson, a UK based expert in the supply, assembly and maintenance of the hazardous area and industrial electrical equipment.

    After the acquisition, the entire DDEC business and inventory will be fully integrated and absorbed into Proserv’s Middle East-based service operation and will relocate to the company’s state-of-the-art new facility in Abu Dhabi, which was opened in 2020.

    DDEC provides a range of electrical engineering services and ex-certified equipment (suitable for use in potentially explosive atmospheres). These products include in-house assembled Atex/IECEx approved junction boxes, LED light fixtures and cable glands, for multiple sectors including the energy industry.

    The DDEC team also supplies competent electrical and instrumentation (E&I) technicians to carry out electrical equipment installation, inspection and maintenance, with accreditation from globally recognized bodies such as CompEx, as required for working in potentially explosive atmospheres.

    In addition, as part of its wholesale activities, DDEC acts as a principal distributor for several globally recognized and market-leading hazardous area product manufacturers.

    Proserv has built a growing service business across the Middle East, including manufacturing, alongside its local experience and rapid response. Its Abu Dhabi-based team has developed maintenance and support partnerships with the region’s biggest players, including national oil companies (NOCs).
