On 28 June 2004, the Commission received a notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 4064/89 (1), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No 1310/97 (2), by which the United States undertaking United Technologies Corporation (UTC) and the Japanese company Ishikawajima-Harima Heavy industries (IHI) acquire within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Council Regulation joint control of a newly created company, constituting a joint venture (JV).

2.

The business activities of the undertakings concerned are: — for UTC: industrial conglomerate with activities including elevators (Otis), HVAC (Carrier), Security products and services (Chubb), commercial and military jet engines (Pratt & Whitney) and flight systems (Hamilton Sundstrand), — for IHI: industrial conglomerate with activities including shipbuilding, logistics, industrial machinery and aero-engines, — for the JV: manufacture and sale of air compressors in the Republic of China.
