Following a review of the OCS ES business, OCS Group concluded that the business would have better growth opportunities under new ownership and within a group of companies that possessed greater industry specialism.

The new acquisition will continue to operate as a separate company and will in due course be rebranded to trade as 'Rhodar Industrial Services'.

Jason Davy, Group CEO and MD of Rhodar, said: " am delighted to be able to complete this acquisition as it is such a good fit for our business. It offers us a range of exciting opportunities particularly in terms of our ambitious strategy for our southern region."
