Langfields targets growth with acquisition of Titanium welding specialist ECF Alloys

Salford-headquartered engineering group Langfields today completed the acquisition of ECF Alloys, one of the UK’s leading fabrication companies specialising in Titanium welding and process equipment.

Established nearly 30 years ago, ECF is based in Worksop, Notts. The business designs and manufactures pressure equipment for multiple markets. The deal will see Langfields acquire 100% equity in the business whilst retaining the key skills of the Management Team. Langfields Group Managing Director, Neil Yates, commented:

“ECF has a great reputation in the UK & Europe for pressure component manufacturing, and advanced welding processes specialising in Exotic materials and Titanium. We expect their skilled staff and strategic facilities will support our growth ambitions, where we are experiencing significant demand in new markets such as hydrogen, nuclear power, waste-to-energy and pharmaceutical.”
