Storage Control Systems Ltd. recently acquired the instruments and controlled atmosphere divisions of International Controlled Atmosphere (ICA), a company based in the United Kingdom.

Storage Control Systems Inc. has been a long-time customer of ICA’s instruments division, and incorporated the ICA6000 range of control equipment in many of its installed systems in North America, according to a press release.

ICA’s controlled atmosphere division, run by Trevor Underdown, is part of the new company and will be integrated as a single business. Storage Control Systems Ltd. will continue to operate with the same people, premises, products and services as before, according to the press release.
