Det-Tronics, which makes safety systems for the oil and gas industry, has acquired Optronics, a Norwegian company that specializes in optical gas detection technologies.
Det-Tronics makes detection and hazard-mitigation systems for high-risk processes and industrial operations. It’s part of Stamford-based Spectrum Safety Solutions.
Spectrum was formed in 2024 when Carrier sold its industrial fire businesses to Sentinel Capital Partners. It has about 1,400 employees globally, and sells products under a number of brands, including Marioff, Autronica and Fireye in addition to Det-Tronics.
Oslo-based Optronics, founded in 2018, makes detection products for energy, marine and industrial applications.
It’s the second recent acquisition for Det-Tronics. In June, it made a deal for R.C. Systems, a Texas-based company that also specializes in gas detection products and solutions.
“Optronics is an innovation leader in high-end optical gas detection with tremendous growth prospects,” said Rajan Goel, CEO of Spectrum Safety Solutions.
Det-Tronics says the acquisition is aligned with its growth strategy, and will complement the company’s current product offerings.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
