A new force in diesel generators has been created with the acquisition by Dieselec Generators Ltd of rival supplier Thistle Generators.
Now renamed Dieselec Thistle Generators the newly integrated business operates from new premises occupying a 6.3 acre site in Milngavie, Glasgow. The company specialises in supplying large standby electricity generators for a range of customers reliant on continuous power supply including hospitals, data centres and supermarkets.
With a 25,000 sq ft warehouse holding £500,000 worth of standard F G Wilson generators and ancillary equipment and an office and depot in London, Dieselec Thistle Generators can supply generating sets from 6 to 2,500 kVA.
The new company is now headed by managing director Paul Moore and sales director Brian Muirie from the head office, while divisional director Colin O'Neil and solutions director Pedro Araujo run the operations at their Southern Depot.
The company is on target to turnover in excess of £17m in the current financial year.
