Benchmark International is delighted to announce the sale of Southampton-based electromechanical engineer Mainplace, to Aquatronic Group Management (AGM).

Mainplace specialises in the distribution, installation and servicing of pumping equipment for a variety of clients operating in the commercial, industrial and retail sectors.

AGM, a group of electromechanical engineering companies, comprises Aquatech Pressmain, Acorn, A & R Engineering, ESIS, PSI Inspection services, O.S. Locke, Renzland Powergates and Warmac. Together, the group of companies manufacture and maintain water booster and pressurisation equipment.

The acquisition enables AGM to improve its coverage in the South of England and expand into the South West. As well, AGM has scope to grow the business, fitting with its current strategy.

On behalf of everyone at Benchmark International, we would like to wish both parties every success for the future.
