Bohlin Instruments Ltd. has acquired the rheology product lines of Rosand Precision Ltd., along with the Rosand trademark. Product lines included in the arrangement are the RH7 and RH2000 capillary rheometers, as well as melt flow index products, online rheology products and VICAT softening point equipment. Bohlin will market the products, which will retain the Rosand brand name, through its existing sales channels, including direct operations in Germany and the U.S., as well as the U.K. Bohlin's management expects that the acquisition will add substantially to revenues in 2001.
