An Arcline spokesperson says: "IWG has established an exceptional reputation over its 35 year history as a technology and performance leader in the aircraft water systems space. The company's steadfast commitment to its customers through design innovation, customer service and aftermarket support underpin this reputation and provide a strong base for future growth. We look forward to partnering with the IWG management team to support the exciting opportunities that lie ahead."
