ECA Group and iXblue become Exail. Following the acquisition of iXblue by the Gorgé Group at the end of September, the ECA Group and iXblue announced on the opening day of EuroNaval, 18 October 2022, that both companies will operate under a new joint brand: Exail.
This brings together two different areas of technology. iXblue offers navigation and platform stabilisation systems. The global group also offers photonics solutions for the aerospace, science, medical, communication and quantum technology sectors.
ECA Group specialises in automation and control technologies in the maritime sector. The Toulon-based holding company is known for its remote-controlled and autonomous systems, which are used in deep-sea exploration and pipeline inspection.
