Stockholm, Sweden, June 2, 2010: Atlas Copco Tools & Assembly Systems LLC has agreed to take over the sales and marketing of products and services in southern United States from its current distributor Tooling Technologies Inc. The agreement further strengthens Atlas Copco’s presence, market coverage and support to customers in the region.

“We are very pleased with this opportunity to integrate a larger part of the U.S. into the Atlas Copco sales organization and offer our customers an even wider range of sophisticated products, services and accessories,” says Mats Rahmström, Business Area President, Atlas Copco Industrial Technique. “The agreement broadens our customer base, increases the aftermarket share of revenues and reduces the cost level.” Tooling Technologies had revenues in 2009 of approximately MUSD 12 (MSEK 90).
