SPX Corporation today announced that its Flow Technology segment has entered into a definitive agreement with Anhydro A/S and Anhydro Holding A/S to acquire the Anhydro business, a Soeborg, Denmark-based global supplier of liquid concentration equipment, powder processing solutions, and dewatering plants and equipment. The terms of the acquisition were not disclosed, and completion of the transaction is expected by the end of the third quarter 2010, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals.
