ABOUT US

Our History

Environmental Automation evolved in the early 1980s from the Controls Division of Thomas Clark and Son, a major air conditioning contractor. In February 2007, the company was acquired by the ARA Group and became Environmental Automation.

More recently the ARA Group also acquired the Doust business bringing over some exception talent and experience to join the EA Team. The Service division acquisition took place in July 2018 followed by the Projects team in January 2019. 

This decision has led to a wealth of experience in the building automation industry.
