US-based designer and manufacturer of electronic components for traffic control systems, 41 Eberle Design (EDI), has acquired Reno A&E (Reno) headquartered in Reno, Nevada.

Reno specialises in the production of inductive loop vehicle detectors for the access and parking control, rail and traffic industries, as well as solid state load switches, power supplies, flashers and conflict monitors for the traffic industry.

EDI says this highly complementary add-on enhances its product offering, provides greater industry exposure, and adds depth to its already talented team of product engineers. The acquisition strengthens Eberle’s position in the traffic and access control segment and also provides EDI access to the rail industry, where it has not historically had a presence.

Reno’s strong customer relationships will further diversify Eberle’s customer base and expand Eberle’s geographic footprint. Reno’s technology-driven product development capabilities and engineering team should also accelerate product innovation, enabling both companies to take advantage of opportunities in the rapidly evolving intelligent transportation systems (ITS) market.
