CHOPIN Technologies, a leader in providing quality testing solutions to the grain and flour markets, has announced it has joined KPM Analytics Group, which was formed last year with the acquisitions of Unity Scientific and Process Sensors.
KPM’s premium brands provide instrumentation solutions for many industries and markets, from food quality and safety to the environment and agriculture.
Throughout CHOPIN’s long history, it has focused on solving the difficult challenges customers face each day in grain and flour production. Over 100 employees work from the headquarters in France and from subsidiaries in China and the United States.
“Joining KPM Group is a great opportunity for CHOPIN Technologies. Developing synergies with Unity Scientific and Process Sensors will enable the three companies to increase their skills for the benefit of their customers and distribution partners,” says Marc Dolige, CHOPIN’s CEO. “Bringing effective and innovative solutions to our clients is and will remain our assignment.”
Dolige will continue as CEO after the acquisition and the entire CHOPIN management team will remain unchanged.
“We are thrilled to be adding Marc and his team to the group and look forward to continued innovation, growth and success” says Chris McIntire, KPM’s CEO. “The acquisition of CHOPIN Technologies by KPM Analytics demonstrates KPM’s focus on strong brands that bring a unique, application-focused set of solutions to customers. CHOPIN brings a particular strength in both the grain and flour-production markets. This deep, market-specific technical strength is a perfect complement to the offerings of KPM’s other portfolio companies, Unity Scientific and Process Sensors. The combination of these three strong and well regarded brands positions KPM Analytics as a key provider in the global food, environmental and agricultural instrumentation markets. CHOPIN will continue to serve grain and flour customers as it has for decades, using the well regarded CHOPIN Technologies brand,” said McIntire.
