RectorSeal And TRUaire Combine Forces To Provide Expanded Product Line And Enhanced Support Programs

RectorSeal, a globally renowned manufacturer of quality HVAC/R tools and accessories, and a wholly-owned subsidiary of CSW Industrials, Inc., has announced its acquisition of TRUaire, to provide residential and commercial grilles, registers, and diffusers to its expanding product line, designed for professional contractors.

Following an integration period, the combined organization will operate with a unified market approach, giving distributors access to RectorSeal and TRUaire products. As major brands, the transaction provides a compelling value proposition to HVAC/R and plumbing contractors.

RectorSeal – TRUaire partnership

The combined organization will focus on five key goals that are necessary for maintaining and growing its customer base. The goals include robust product availability, timely and accurate shipments, ease of doing business, enhanced product quality, and industry renowned training programs, supported with differentiated technology.

“Both RectorSeal and TRUaire products have distinct advantages that will continue to serve our customers,” said Don Sullivan, the President of RectorSeal, adding “This combination will only enhance the performance of both organizations. I would like to personally thank Yongki Yi and Tony Yi of TRUaire for trusting us to be the long-term stewards of their legacy.”

Implementation of new technology platforms

The systems will support business automation, in order to help manage costs, increase sales visibility

Current customers will continue to enjoy the same service level and support they enjoy now. One change resulting from the acquisition will be the implementation of new technology platforms across both organizations. An ERP system, an eCommerce system, and many additional technology tools will become available, in order to support TRUaire customer interactions.

The systems will support business automation, in order to help manage costs, increase sales visibility, and upgrade orders, billing, and additional customer touchpoints.

TRUaire products combine with upgraded technology tools

“The opportunity to continue to provide the legendary quality of TRUaire products, combined with upgraded technology tools, is an instant win for our customers and our company,” stated Ken Grubbs, the Vice President of Sales at TRUaire.

With a legacy of maintaining and promoting the brand names known to contractors in a given market segment, the TRUaire brand becomes the largest brand within the RectorSeal family of brands. Further efforts will be made to expand and grow the TRUaire brand.

RectorSeal distribution centers

As part of the acquisition, legacy RectorSeal distribution centers will be used to deploy products across many TRUaire distribution centers, while maintaining the outstanding service levels familiar to current TRUaire customers.
