Following almost 40 years of private ownership, Pyroban Group Ltd joined the Caterpillar Group on 31st August 2011.

Pyroban and its subsidiaries will continue to operate as normal with no change to the core products and services offered worldwide.

“We are committed to building on Pyroban’s long history” explains Ian Ratcliff, Managing Director of the Pyroban Group.  “Pyroban will remain a strong global brand and operate as an independent business unit.”

The Pyroban Group supplies a broad range of environmental and hazardous area equipment and services to the oil and gas, mining, marine and industrial markets across Europe, Asia and the US.  The company’s commitment to working with a wide range of equipment manufacturers and suppliers remains unchanged.

“We will continue to work with all our customers and their brands with the same trust, integrity, confidentiality and impartiality that we have always had” confirms Ian.

Pyroban has grown significantly in the last decade and expects to accelerate growth plans as the company reaches new geographies and further develops its product and service offering.  Pyroban will take advantage of Caterpillar's strength in manufacturing, product support and supply chain management to ensure an even better global offering for its customers.

“This is a very positive move for all staff across the Pyroban Group and all customers, and we look forward to the next 40 years of Pyroban” adds Ian.
