Charlie Peppiatt (pictured), chief executive of Stadium Group, said: “A clear focus for Stadium is to continue to strengthen and build on the success of our technology products division.
“We have been targeting potential acquisitions that bring a clear value proposition; businesses that complement our existing technologies, increase our exposure to high growth markets, and improve our quality of earnings.
“Stontronics will deliver all of these, underpinning our ‘one-stop-shop’ integrated technology strategy and it will provide benefits through synergies, cross-selling opportunities and improved economies of scale.”
Based in Reading, Stontronics employs 30 people making and distributing transofrmers, adaptors and power supply units. A strength is its ability to supply customised, semi-customised and standard power products either from distribution partners or from its own manufacturing site. It also offers a bespoke design service. It sells to over 500 customers in Europe and North America.
