TransTech Energy recently acquired Bendel Tank and Heat Exchanger through a newly formed subsidiary of the same name.
Bendel is a 60-year-old designer and fabricator of pressure vessels, reactors, heat exchangers and storage vessels for a variety of markets.
“We’re excited to welcome Bendel to the TransTech family,” said Greg Ezzell, president of TransTech. “Along with extending our product offerings and engineering depth, Bendel’s East Coast location complements our Texas-based assets and will augment our flexibility, speed and responsiveness for our combined customer base.”
Based in Charlotte NC, Bendel has a 65,000-square-foot fabrication facility on 12 acres where it produces engineered products to nationally recognized standards, including ASME, API, TEMA and UL. The company serves customers across chemical, pharmaceutical, food, textile, water/wastewater and energy markets.
Since investing in TransTech in 2013, Bridge has supported its growth, leading to a rapid expansion in custom engineered and fabricated solutions.
“The Bendel acquisition strategically positions TransTech for its next stage of growth, adding increased capacity, experience, depth and market diversification,” said Jeff Berlin, president of Bridge Industries.
Added Bill Beaver, Bendel’s president: “We are truly excited by our partnership with TransTech and Bridge. We share many cultural similarities and jointly agree that our union will accelerate our mutual growth.”
