Italian Compressed Air Distributor Located in Lombardy Has Become Part of Atlas Copco Group

LACO is based in Salt Lake City, Utah, US, and manufactures comprehensive vacuum solutions, vacuum chambers and advanced leak detection equipment, designed for aerospace, research and development, and diverse industrial applications.

Atlas Copco AB’s Nomination Committee announced its proposal for the Board of Directors ahead of the Annual General Meeting 2026. The Committee proposes Martin Lundstedt to be elected as a new member of the Board of Directors of Atlas Copco AB.

It has previously been announced that National Tank & Equipment, LLC (“NTE”), an American specialty rental company would become part of Atlas Copco Group. This acquisition has now been finalized.

Atlas Copco has launched a new range of Emergency Trash Pumps (ETP) to complement its existing dewatering portfolio. The new pumps provide a robust and portable solution for fast and reliable water removal in challenging environments. Designed for construction, mining, quarrying and other industrial dewatering applications, the ETP range offers dedicated models for both clean water and dirty water handling.

Reliable water access is essential not only for households and industry but also for maintaining green spaces that enhance quality of life for urban residents. Japanese underground construction specialist Sansui Kaihatsu Co., Ltd., based in Miyoshi City, Hiroshima Prefecture and serving customers across Japan, drilled a 250-meter water well in Toyota City, Aichi Prefecture to supply sprinklers for a local golf course — powered by Atlas Copco’s Y35 portable air compressor.

Heide Pumpen GmbH, a German distributor and service provider of portable pumps, has become part of Atlas Copco Group.
