As part of the Vortex Family, Premier Pipe to offer expanded product and service offerings to its licensees
HOUSTON, Aug. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Vortex Companies (Vortex) announced that it has recently acquired Troy, Ohio based, Premier Pipe USA (Premier Pipe), a long-time provider of high-performance cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) products manufactured by United Felts, also a Vortex Company, to its network of licensed installers. "We're excited to have Premier Pipe on board. They have an excellent reputation and are known for the high level of support they deliver to their licensees," stated Mike Vellano, CEO of the Vortex Companies. "Being backed by Vortex, Premier Pipe can now significantly expand its service and product offerings, putting its customers in a position to be even more competitive in the market."
In 1997 Premier Pipe founder James "Jim" Mortell, saw a void in the way CIPP pipe was being delivered to installation contractors, and developed a system to support them by offering a turnkey solution that not only included products, but also design, technical, and field support. To date, more than 30 million feet of liner has been installed through Premier Pipe. "This is such a competitive business, and we want our installers to always be in the best position to succeed, so strategically we can't be more pleased with this acquisition," added Jim. This combination of talent and resources is a direct result of a high-performance culture within The Vortex Companies. "Together this positions Premier Pipe licensees to offer the most innovative lining technology, trenchless products, technical expertise and project design support," stated Ram Vela, SVP, Corporate Development & Analytics at Vortex.
