Ennis Traffic Safety Solutions has sold its UK-based contracting subsidiary, Prismo Contracting Services to DBi Services of Hazleton, Pennsylvania. The terms of the transaction have not been disclosed however.

“We’ve thought about divesting our contracting division to concentrate on our core horizontal road marking products for quite some time,” explained John Midea, president of Ennis Traffic.

“1394 Ennis Prismo operated our only contracting division, so this decision was good for our international operations, the Prismo Contracting Services group and DBi. We will continue to concentrate on our core safety solutions products in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. This sale gives DBi a wonderful opportunity to expand their international operations.”
