In August 2002, FLS Industries announced its intention to dispose of its aerospace business as part of a disposal of non-core businesses. It is understood that the sale of FLS Aerospace (including FLS, Dublin) has not yet been completed and is subject to the approval of various regulatory authorities. IDA Ireland is closely monitoring developments and has sought an early meeting with SR Technics, the purchasers of FLS Aerospace, to discuss its future plans for the Irish operation.
