Manufacturing occurs in clean rooms with high medical technology standards.\n\n&#34;We see Astra Tech as a very interesting customer, with good potential to develop further collaboration,&#34; commented Peter Krikstr\u00f6m, head of the Nolato Medical business area.\n\nNolato&#39;s intention is to move operations for Astra Tech from Kaltoplast in \u00c4ngelholm, Sweden, to Nolato Medevo in nearby Torekov. The takeover is occurring by means of an acquisition of assets and liabilities.\n\n&#34;We will offer 20 people who have been working with the manufacturing operations in \u00c4ngelholm employment with us in Torekov,&#34; Mr. Krikstr\u00f6m said.\n\nIn 2003, the Nolato Group&#39;s three profit centers - Nolato Telecom, Nolato Industrial and Nolato Medical - reported total sales of about SEK 2.7 billion (nearly USD 360 million). Nolato Medical accounted for about 5 percent but is in a strong growth phase: during the first quarter of 2004, its sales rose by 25 percent. \n\n-------------------------------------------------------\nFor further information, please contact:\nGeorg Brunstam, Nolato President and CEO, \ntelephone +46 431 44 22 94 or mobile phone +46 708 551251 \nPeter Krikstr\u00f6m, President, Nolato Medevo and head of the Nolato Medical business area, \ntelephone +46 431 44 22 14 or mobile phone +46 708 20 88 83\n\n------------------------------------------------------------\nThis information was brought to you by Waymaker  http:\/\/www.waymaker.net\nThe following files are available for download:\nhttp:\/\/www.waymaker.net\/bitonline\/2004\/06\/16\/20040616BIT20570\/wkr0006.pdf The press release as pdf file<\/p><\/pre>\n<div class=\"mfn-footer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nolato strengthens its operations in the medical technology sector; Acquires operations from Kaltoplast Nolato Medevo, a unit of the Nolato Medical business area of the Nolato Group, is acquiring Kaltoplast&#39;s medical technology operations, with Astra Tech &#8211; part of the pharmaceutical group AstraZeneca &#8211; as the main customer. &#34;The acquisition fits very well into our&hellip; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/temporary.nolato.com\/ru\/mfn_news\/nolato-strengthens-its-operations-in-the-medical-technology-sector-acquires-operations-from-kaltoplast\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Nolato strengthens its operations in the medical technology sector; Acquires operations from Kaltoplast<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-506","mfn_news","type-mfn_news","status-publish","hentry","mfn-news-tag-mfn-ci","mfn-news-tag-mfn-lang-en","mfn-news-tag-mfn-type-ir","mfn-news-tag-mfn-regulatory-listing","mfn-news-tag-mfn","mfn-news-tag-mfn-ci-other","mfn-news-tag-mfn-regulatory","entry"],"translation":{"provider":"WPGlobus","version":"3.0.0","language":"ru","enabled_languages":["en","es","de","fr","ru","sv"],"languages":{"en":{"title":true,"content":true,"excerpt":false},"es":{"title":false,"content":false,"excerpt":false},"de":{"title":false,"content":false,"excerpt":false},"fr":{"title":false,"content":false,"excerpt":false},"ru":{"title":false,"content":false,"excerpt":false},"sv":{"title":false,"content":false,"excerpt":false}}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/temporary.nolato.com\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mfn_news\/506","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/temporary.nolato.com\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mfn_news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/temporary.nolato.com\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/mfn_news"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/temporary.nolato.com\/ru\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=506"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
