Groome Industrial Service Group, a provider of specialty maintenance services across a range of industrial markets, announced its acquisition of Kentucky-based Explosive Professionals (ExPro).
Founded in 1995 and providing services across the U.S., ExPro specializes in industrial and HRSG cleaning, primarily conducting boiler cleaning and slag removal through the utilization of explosives.
Jeff Bause, CEO of Groome Industrial Service Group, stated, "I am excited that these two companies with outstanding reputations are joining forces. Both companies have extremely talented teams that deliver strong value to clients each and every day. It's a strategic move to bring ExPro's patented processes together with Groome's history of successfully finding solutions and delivering top-notch specialty services over the past 50+ years. This transaction is a great thing for all our clients."
ExPro has a long track record of safety and success, plus deep relationships in a variety of industries that include coal-fired utilities, refinery, HRSG, waste-to-energy, chemical and plastics manufacturing, and pulp and paper.
"Many of the industries that Groome serves will benefit from ExPro's technologies – and on the flipside, ExPro's customers will find great value in the offerings of Groome. This match will work out well for clients across various industries," explained Bause.
