The acquisition significantly scales Latus Group’s capacity and geographical reach, expanding its mobile health surveillance capabilities.
Occupational health provider Latus Group has acquired West Yorkshire-based Peritus Health Management.
Financial terms have not been disclosed.
Based in Brighouse, West Yorkshire, Peritus Health operates a fleet of 11 mobile health surveillance units and has delivered consistent growth of 20% year-on-year for the past five years.
The acquisition was backed by regional private equity firm NorthEdge private equity. It represents a strategic consolidation within the sector and significantly scales Latus Group’s capacity and geographical reach, expanding its mobile health surveillance capabilities and strengthening its occupational hygiene practice.
All 30 Peritus employees will remain and operations will continue to be supported from a new Brighouse-based office.
“As businesses continue to turn to joined-up, future-ready workplace health solutions, this acquisition enables us to offer clients a broader, more seamless service, from hygiene monitoring through to health surveillance, all in one place and all working together, supporting UK businesses to maintain statutory health compliance and beyond,” said Latus Group chief executive Jack Latus.
