Jennmar has confirmed it has acquired a line of mine sealant products from the pyro-chem division of Wright-Mix Material Solutions (Wright-Mix).
Jennchem, a Jennmar subsidiary, will add Pyro-Chem’s Pro Seal LX, Pro Seal TNT, Pyro-Chem TC, and Sealit Spray Mine Sealant to its product portfolio. The acquisition enables additional growth and customer service capabilities for Jennchem through expanding manufacturing capabilities and product offerings.
Ohio-based Pyro-Chem is a recognized producer of pre-mixed, fire-retardant ventilation sealants for the underground mining industry.
“We are proud to expand and strengthen our mine sealant offerings with the acquisition of Pyro-Chem’s products,” said Jennmar CEO Tony Calandra. “We are confident these high-quality products will help further our commitment to providing comprehensive solutions to the underground mining industry, in-turn benefitting our customers. This transaction speaks to our longtime partnership with the Wright-Mix team and builds on our recent acquisition of the assets of the Holden, West Virginia-based Wright-Mix cement blending facility.”
Drew Morgan, chief operating officer of Jennchem, added: “Pyro-Chem has been providing trusted mine sealant products for over four decades, and we are thrilled to add this proven line-up of products to the Jennchem portfolio. We look forward to leveraging an expanded offering of sealants to deliver even greater value to our customers.”
The acquisition marks the second strategic transaction between Jennmar and Wright-Mix. Earlier this year, Jennmar acquired the assets of the Holden, W.Va.-based cement blending facility of Wright-Mix.
