Hawk Measurement America LLC and Flo-Corp, leading manufacturers and suppliers of advanced process instrumentation and cloud-based monitoring technology reported July 30 that they've merged the two companies, creating a complete flow, level and asset monitoring solutions provider.
“Hawk and Flo-Corp are merging to increase our already high commitment to our customers by bringing the most innovative products to market and establish a manufacturing base in the Americas. This is a very exciting event for both companies, for our employees and our customers,” says Jack Evans, president of Hawk. “By combining Hawk's award-winning measurement technology with Flo-Corp's measurement monitoring solutions in a subscription-based platform, we're increasing our ability to provide unmatched customer support, innovative technologies and system solutions.”
The combined company is privately held and will operate under the Hawk brand. Les Richards will remain as CEO of Hawk Measurement Systems; Jack Evans will remain president of Hawk Measurement; and Dave Grumney, CEO of Flo-Corp, will become VP of sales for Hawk.
“The merging of Hawk Measurement and Flo-Corp is a merging of like-minds and philosophies, with the clear goal of increasing our capabilities to help our customers results, having available any level measurement, flow, process data collection, remote information distribution, and fiber-based sensing solutions,” says Richards. “This merger will further facilitate a broader product portfolio, technical knowledge and support infrastructure. Together, we'll lead the way in providing industry required solutions, reliably and simply.”
Over the past three decades, both companies have worked to develop best-in-class products and design advanced technologies that are capable of providing solutions for even the most difficult applications. The merger is a natural progression of the two companies’ focus on providing customers complete solutions to reduce costs, mitigate risks and increase business agility.
