Atlas Copco has acquired certain assets of Guangzhou Linghein Compressor Co Ltd to help drive its expansion in China.

Linghein, founded in 2001, is located in Guangzhou in southeast China and has a strong regional presence with its industrial air compressors. It primarily produces small and medium-sized oil-injected rotary screw compressors.

The acquired business will become part of Atlas Copco Compressor Technique’s industrial air division. Linghein will continue to operate under its own brand, in line with Atlas Copco strategy.
