Whitehead Monckton’s corporate team have advised Maidstone based engineering company, R.B. Plant Group Limited, on its strategic acquisition of Evans & Langford.
Maidstone based R B Plant Group provides mechanical, electrical, process, and civil & structural engineering services across a wide range of sectors from pharmaceuticals to heavy engineering – applying vision, purpose, and cutting-edge expertise.
The transaction was a natural progression of the two businesses’ close collaboration on several large, prestigious projects in recent years.
As part of a larger multi-disciplinary group, Evans & Langford will be able to offer a wider range of services to its clients at every stage of a project, from initial survey and geo-environmental investigations through concept and all design and construction stages.
Whitehead Monckton’s team was led by Head of Corporate, Daniel Tozer, and supported by Suzan Petrosian. Speaking of the acquisition, Daniel Tozer said, “We enjoyed advising R B Plant Group on this strategic acquisition and it is evident from the synergies between the businesses that Evans & Langford will thrive being part of the larger group and only enhance the service offered to its clients.”
We express our sincerest thanks for the help and cooperation from all involved in achieving this closure. The significance of this venture for both companies is a landmark moment - the coming together of two well established, successful, and well managed companies under “one roof” marks a significant opportunity as we develop further together
