The acquisition of Combiflow makes AxFlow Ireland the largest distributor of positive displacement pumps and fluid handling systems in Ireland.
The AxFlow product portfolio now includes Mono pumps, Waukesha Cherry Burrell, Bran+Luebbe, ITT Jabsco, Wilden, Almatec, Johnson Pump, Flux, Global, Mouvex, Piab and Blackmer.
AxFlow Ireland managing director Stuart Flood said: “AxFlow and Combiflow have complementary product ranges and experience in the provision of pumps and associated fluid handling technologies. Historically both companies have concentrated on different market sectors, where they have been highly successful. By bringing the two companies together we shall be able to provide all sectors of industry throughout Ireland with a wider product offering, enhanced customer care and service levels, and access to the AxFlow Group’s considerable international resources.”
“The synergy of complimentary products resulting from the acquisition and the resources available from AxFlow provide a platform for growth. Most importantly it improves the level of service and product offering to our clients across all industry sectors,” said Morgan O’Brien, formerly managing director of Combiflow and now key account manager and product manager with AxFlow.
