Milwaukee-based Rexnord today announced it has acquired the assets of LWG Specialised Plumbing Products (LWG) from Hills Holdings Limited.
LWG is a leading Australia-based provider of plumbing solutions for the non-residential construction market and has been a distributor of select Zurn brand products for over 20 years. LWG has six warehouse locations throughout Australia and annual sales of approximately $14 million (USD). LWG distributes stainless steel fixtures, tapware, back flow prevention devices, pressure reducing valves and flushing systems.
“We are excited to acquire LWG after a 20-year relationship with them as a distributor in the Australian market,” said Craig Wehr, president, Zurn Industries LLC. “The acquisition allows us to further penetrate the non-residential construction market by expanding the portfolio of Zurn products sold in Australia as well as giving us access to key LWG distributed products to complement the existing Zurn offering in North America. With coverage throughout the Australian continent, the acquisition of LWG is a perfect fit for Zurn and provides a unique opportunity to continue to grow our business globally.”
