OREANDA-NEWS. May 11, 2009. Ensto, a manufacturer of electrical products of the Finnish EM Group, is merging the Estonian plastic products maker AS Imco with itself and will move the production of plastic enclosures to Imco.

Ensto will stop the production of plastic enclosures in Finland and move the business to Imco facilities in Tallinn. The transfer will take place at the end of 2009, Ensto said in a press release.

Ensto is already present in Estonia with a plant and a sales unit that together employ some 300 people in Keila, a town situated to the southwest of Tallinn.

Ensto is an international industrial group and family business specializing in the development, manufacture and marketing of electrical systems and supplies. It posted sales of close to 237 million euros for 2008 and employs approximately 1,300 people in 18 countries in Europe and Asia.

Imco's sales last year amounted to approximately five million euros. The supplier of injection molding and coating products is based in Tallinn and employs a workforce of 70.

Imco has manufactured some plastic parts also for Ensto's products. Both Imco and Ensto are fully owned by the Finnish EM Group.
