Klinger IGI Inc. formed
Klinger Holding GmbH in Austria announced the formation of Klinger IGI Inc. as an addition to the group’s industrial gasketing presence in the United States.
Headquartered in Wilsonville, Ore., with an additional location in Denver, the seals and gasketing manufacturer is a result of Klinger’s acquisition of IGI.
“The strength and success of IGI’s expertise in the Pacific northwest and Klinger’s global reach make this a natural fit and a great platform for us to build and expand upon,” said Klinger IGI Inc.’s president Scott Peters.
The company serves both OEM and MRO markets with materials used in the manufacture of industrial and consumer products.
“We are extremely happy with, and have a great respect for, the valued employees, strong customer and supplier relationships and product portfolio IGI established throughout their 53+ year history. Klinger IGI Inc. will continue this proud tradition of success with the added benefit of the Klinger Group’s global power and brand image,” Peters added.
The Klinger Group of independent companies, which includes Thermoseal Inc. and Klinger Advantage Inc., provides sealing and fluid control solutions. The family business was founded in 1886 by Austrian engineer Richard Klinger. Klinger's distribution network is comprised of production facilities as well as sales and service offices in more than 60 countries.
