Québec, Canada, August 10, 2021
— Eddyfi/NDT announces today that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Zetec, a subsidiary of Roper Technologies, Inc.
(NYSE: ROP). The transaction is expected to close at the end of the year and is subject to customary closing conditions and approvals.

Founded 50 years ago, Zetec is a major player in the non-destructive industry, with global engineering and manufacturing centers in Quebec City, Canada, and corporate headquarters in Snoqualmie, Washington, USA. Furthermore, Zetec is present around the globe, with Centers of Excellence in Houston, Paris, Seoul and Shanghai.

More specifically, following the closing of the transaction, Zetec will formally join Eddyfi Technologies, a business unit of Eddyfi/NDT. “For over 10 years, we have achieved great success in the NDT market by focusing on specialized NDT technologies. Through innovation and a customer-focused approach, we are a driving force in our industry. We believe that the acquisition of Zetec will complement our market coverage and expertise and allow new opportunities to emerge. I look forward to the game-changing ideas our joined forces will bring to the industry” says Pierre-Hugues Allard, President of Eddyfi Technologies.

“For many reasons, one of them being that both companies share the same roots, I believe that our Group is the ideal home for Zetec’s team. We are very excited about the idea to reconnect and collaborate with past colleagues, friends, and clients to imagine new possibilities with Eddyfi/NDT’s fresh perspective on the market. With our combined strengths and experience, as well as our respective technology-leadership, the fit is natural and will create a stronger company” adds Martin Theriault, CEO of Eddyfi/NDT.
