Added 02 December 2020

Change of name and merger of TRUMPF and its subsidiary SPI Lasers completed

As a result of this name change and merger, the former SPI Lasers organization is now working even more closely with TRUMPF Laser- und Systemtechnik GmbH

The high-technology company TRUMPF has completed the renaming and merger of its wholly-owned fiber laser manufacturing subsidiary SPI Lasers, into the TRUMPF group and under the TRUMPF brand. Effective November 28, 2020, the Southampton, UK-based company SPI Lasers UK Ltd. will now operate under the name TRUMPF Laser UK Ltd. The companies SPI USA and SPI Korea have been merged with the local companies TRUMPF USA and TRUMPF Korea, respectively, effective November 1 and December 1, 2020. TRUMPF has previously merged the SPI subsidiary in China with TRUMPF China back in April 2020. Since July 1, 2020, products from the former SPI Lasers have been available through TRUMPF sales channels.
As a result of this name change and merger, the former SPI Lasers organization is now working even more closely with TRUMPF Laser- und Systemtechnik GmbH, also a wholly owned subsidiary of the TRUMPF Group. The two companies are pooling their competence and expertise in laser technology worldwide to create synergies and improve customer service for industrial applications in both disk laser and fiber laser technology.
SPI Lasers UK Ltd. has been a wholly owned subsidiary of the TRUMPF Group since 2008 and has quickly established itself within the group as an expert in the development and manufacture of fiber lasers.
