Leader Electronics Acquires PHABRIX

Leader Electronics has acquired UK-based PHABRIX, a global manufacturer of video and audio broadcast Test and Measurement instruments.

PHABRIX has established itself with cost-effective test and measurement instruments since it was formed in 2005.

The acquisition will see both companies continue with existing product lines and development plans, joining forces to expand sales presence worldwide.

“PHABRIX is delighted to join the growing Leader team. Both companies have much to gain from each other; both putting design and engineering expertise at the heart of development,” said Phillip Adams, Managing Director, PHABRIX. “With our combined talent and complementary product lines, together with a greater geographical reach, it’s going to be a very exciting future for staff, customers and our global distribution partners.”

“With our rapidly evolving industry, it’s important to future-proof our product development capabilities. Uniting PHABRIX’s and Leader’s talented development teams provides the increased momentum required to address the changing landscape of customer needs,” said Kozo Nagao, CEO, Leader Electronics. “PHABRIX brings to Leader extensive IP, HDR and UHD knowledge and a highly competitive portfolio of handheld and rack-mounted instruments. We look forward to learning from one another as we look to maximize our growth and our global presence in the competitive Test and Measurement industry.”
