Pelco Expands with Acquisition of Component Products
Pelco Products, Inc. (“Pelco”) announces the acquisition of Component Products, Inc. (“CPI”) solidifying their combined position as a national leader in innovative solutions for the traffic hardware manufacturing market.
Each company will operate autonomously delivering the same high level of commitment to improving roadway safety and saving lives across all 50 states, Canada, and internationally.
“We are excited to offer an exceptional line of complementary products and solutions to our customers,” said Paul Koenig, President of Pelco. “In addition to being aligned in terms of company cultures, the acquisition of Component Products into the Pelco family will create additional capacity allowing us to maintain the short lead times for the high-quality products our customers have come to expect from CPI”. I believe Pelco and CPI have earned industry-leading reputations by employing great people, delivering premium products at a fair price, and striving for outstanding customer service. Through innovation, quality and service, our combined companies will continue to set the standard in our industry”.
Linda Guertler, CPI President said, “Over the past 35 years, the Guertler family has enjoyed building CPI into a nationally recognized and respected traffic component manufacturing company. We are delighted to join the Pelco family of companies. The synergy created by this acquisition will power both companies to the next level of customer service and product diversification while maintaining the highest levels of quality and innovation that our customers expect and deserve.”
Koenig added, “You could think of the Pelco family of companies as a tree - Pelco and CPI as the trunk, with our poles, bases and mounting products, and TraffiCalm and Novax as the branches, offering complimentary products mounted on that tree”.
Linda Guertler will serve as a consultant to Pelco to ensure a smooth transition for our customers, and the company will continue to operate in its current location in Elmhurst, IL.
