Honeywell Completes Acquisition of Elster
Honeywell announced it has completed its acquisition of the Elster division of Melrose Industries plc, a leading provider of thermal gas solutions for commercial, industrial, and residential heating systems and gas, water, and electricity meters, including smart meters and software and data analytics solutions. Elster also manufactures gas metering and pressure control devices, as well as total solutions for the gas transmission and distribution industry.
