“We are thrilled to welcome STS Industrial to the NEFCO family,” said Matthew Gelles, CEO of NEFCO. “STS has been a respected supplier with deep roots in the Gulf region, and their expertise and culture align directly with NEFCO’s focus on speed, service, and technical solutions for contractors.”
Gelles also recognized the Habetz family for building such a strong, customer-focused business.
“Together, our teams will be even better positioned to provide unmatched service and innovative solutions to our customers,” he said.
STS Industrial supplies fasteners, pipe, valves and fittings (PVF), gaskets, pipe supports, and cutting tools to refinery and chemical facilities, oil and gas operators, industrial contractors, and manufacturing customers across the United States.
Via the acquisition, the company will continue operating as usual, while gradually introducing NEFCO’s expanded product portfolio, SHARP fabrication capabilities, value-added services, and technology-enabled solutions to its customers.
“This is a proud and exciting moment for STS,” said the Habetz family of STS Industrial. “Partnering with NEFCO allows us to build on the strong foundation we’ve created while opening up new opportunities for our employees and delivering even greater value to our customers through NEFCO’s national scale, expanded product offerings, and resources."
