Amdel Acquires IML
Date: 16th April 2007
Amdel, one of Australia’s leading laboratory services
companies, has continued its aggressive expansion plans in
the booming WA minerals market with the acquisition of Perth
based IML (Independent Metallurgical Laboratories).
Amdel has been in the stable of leading private equity firm
Champ Ventures since Dec 2005 when Champ assisted Amdel management
in an MBO from Healthscope.
Amdel has operations across Australia, providing geo analytical
and minerals processing laboratory support to the entire mining
sector.
The acquisition of the metallurgical based IML will further
strengthen Amdel’s provision of quality mineral processing
services across all mining commodity markets.
Amdel CEO Steve McAllister believes “the acquisition
of IML will enable us to meet the ever increasing demands
of clients for a single laboratory to satisfy their entire
mineral analysis requirements, from exploration to mineral
processing.”
“Customers are demanding reliable, high quality laboratory
results within an agreed timeframe and the integration of
IML into the Amdel family will provide a complete service
package for existing and new clients.”
Amdel is a provider of laboratory services to a diversified
range of markets in Australia and New Zealand including the
high growth mining, environmental and petroleum sectors. Amdel’s
clients include blue chips BHPB, Xstrata and One Steel.
