FMS acquired by Trescal

Facility Monitoring Systems (FMS), a trusted provider of contamination control solutions, is excited to announce that it has joined Trescal, a global leader in calibration services.

This strategic acquisition is a significant milestone for FMS. The company – previously known as Validair Monitoring Solutions - is set to deliver significant benefits to the contamination control industry across the UK and Ireland through expanded service capabilities, cutting-edge cleanroom contamination control solutions and a strengthened commitment to exemplary customer support.

As part of the Trescal family, FMS gains access to expanded resources, expertise and a global network, enabling the company to further elevate its solutions for cleanrooms and controlled environments. FMS’s expertise in designing, installing and maintaining environmental monitoring systems complements Trescal’s calibration and metrology services, reinforcing FMS’s position as a leading provider in regulated industries such as pharmaceutical, biotechnology, life sciences and healthcare.

As the strategic partner to FMS in Ireland, Astech (Ireland) will continue to be the direct interface for all customers, underpinning the company’s drive to support and develop the Irish market. Astech has an established and robust localised sales and customer support infrastructure that delivers contamination control solutions across Ireland. It also stands to benefit from the Trescal acquisition of FMS.

“Becoming part of the Trescal family is a transformative opportunity for FMS,” explains Deborah Haisman, Commercial Director at FMS. “We are proud of our strong reputation and the trust our customers place in us. Working with Trescal’s experts and calibration solutions will allow us to enhance our services, expand our reach and deliver even greater value to our customers in all contamination control sectors in the UK and Ireland.”

Karolina Lachi-Kolarova, Managing Director of Trescal in the UK, Ireland and Norway adds: “By bringing FMS into the Trescal family, we are boosting our capabilities and strengthening our commitment to serving highly regulated industries. The complementary skills and experience of the two companies is a powerful asset to our global business.”

TSI, a global leader in precision measurement and particle counter instrumentation and a long-standing principal to FMS, which is the sole Gold Channel Partner for the TSI range of contamination control products in the UK and Ireland, has expressed its endorsement of this exciting development.
