(Feb. 29 2016) – Hydro International has announced that it has entered into conditional agreements to acquire Hydro-Logic Limited and the business of Hydro-Logic Services LLP (collectively Hydro-Logic). Hydro-Logic was founded in 1985 by Rod Hawnt, the current managing director. Its products provide instrumentation and information systems for water environment monitoring applications, including data logging, telemetry and software. Hydro-Logic’s services provides specialist hydrological and water resource management consultancy, using Hydro-Logic devices to collect and analyze real-world data and apply the findings to support planning decisions, optimize hydraulic and network design, increase water system efficiencies and reduce flood and pollution risk.
