Better Together

Better Together

The calendar year 2018 saw the coming together of three long-tenured heat exchange companies into one ownership group. Each brings extensive, distinctive, and specialized heat exchange experiences to be benefited by all. Each company will continue to operate out of their current design, engineering, and manufacturing facilities locations. All will benefit by combining into their respective companies the combined industry-leading experience from all three. Regardless of the project, the coming together of these three heat exchange companies means 140 years of industry-leading experience will be assigned to your project.
