Protacon expands its production tracking services

10.3.2009
Protacon has acquired Metso Automation Ltd’s DNAroAd business operations.

DNAroAd production tracking system has originally been designed for paper mills and printing houses. Now Protacon will launch the system further for the production management of other industries.

In addition to the DNAroAd production rights, the business operation acquisition comprises Metso Automation Ltd’s staff at the Hollola office. The seven employees will form Protacon’s new regional office.

”The new application possibilities expand our services and DNAroAd complements perfectly our measurement and information system operations”, states Protacon Group’s CEO Timo Akselin.

Metso is a global supplier of sustainable technology and services for mining, construction, power generation, automation, recycling and the pulp and paper industries. It has over 29,000 employees in more than 50 countries.
