Harrington Industrial Plastics Acquires the Assets of ProTec Construction Services & Supply
CHINO, CA—December 23, 2011—Harrington Industrial Plastics today announced the acquisition
of the business of ProTec Construction Services & Supply; the premier supplier of high purity and
industrial piping systems in Texas.
"Harrington's commitment to excellence and growth has never been stronger, which is why we're
excited to welcome the knowledgeable and skilled employees of ProTec to the Harrington Family.
Our customers nationwide know what makes Harrington their first choice for high purity and
corrosive solutions, and we're confident that in Texas we will continue to provide that outstanding
level of service and expertise," said Jim Swanson, Harrington's President and CEO.
ProTec is a privately held, regional distributor of high purity piping systems with branches in San
Antonio, Dallas, and Austin, Texas. These locations will serve as an excellent anchor point to
penetrate markets not locally serviced by Harrington, as well as provide a path for future
expansion in the Gulf Coast. The acquisition of ProTec enhances Harrington's existing product
offering in the pharmaceutical and high purity markets.
Harrington has grown from a regional distributorship to the largest distributor of industrial plastic
piping systems in the United States. Harrington began in 1959 with the purpose of servicing
customers that handle corrosive liquids and has expanded its offerings to include products for
customers with high purity and corrosion resistant needs. Companies that require high purity and
corrosion resistant solutions find Harrington an indispensable resource for their demanding
process.
Harrington's commitment to excellence and growth is made possible by the knowledge and
experience of its employees, the quality and support of its suppliers, and the loyalty of its
customers.
