Airco swoops for Natural Gas Services

THE AIR conditioning and refrigeration company Airco Ltd has acquired Hull firm, Natural Gas Services Ltd, for an undisclosed sum.

The buyout came after founder and managing director of Natural Gas Services Ltd, Roy Bailey, decided to retire.

The move enables Airco to extend its services into the commercial plumbing and heating sector.

It doubles the company’s existing heating division, bringing the total number of heating engineers the company employs to 12.

Neil Fisher, founder and managing director of Airco, described Natural Gas Services as a “great fit” for the Airco family as heating was now an integral part of air conditioning.

He said the move enabled him to retain access to the skills and expertise within Natural Gas Services

Natural Gas Services was founded by Mr Bailey in 1995.
