2016 - The emerging market business is growing rapidly, and the total volume of emerging markets such as nuclear, oil and gas, electricity and exports is growing rapidly.

The company originally manufactured generators and motors, but soon also started producing devices and components for all aspects of electricity supply. In recent years ATB Laurence Scott Ltd. has been focusing on the oil and gas industries. ATB Laurence Scott’s reference list is long and constantly growing. The company has thus established itself as a reliable partner in the field of highly complex motors for use in hazardous areas and protection zones as well as for applications with low-current starting.

Company founder William H. Scott pioneered the development of welded steel frame construction, variable speed motors, control gear and motors with low starting current and high torque for special applications. The company became greatly involved in the initial development of various highly specialised motor models for specific project applications in the United Kingdom’s first nuclear power stations, many of which are still in operation today.
