The Trelleborg Group, through its Trelleborg Sealing Solutions business area, has signed an agreement to acquire the US company CRC Distribution. The company is a specialist distributor in polymer sealing solutions and related value-added services in hydraulics, hydropower, oil and gas, as well as for pumps and compressors.

CRC Distribution is based in Robertsdale, Alabama, in the US. Its business is focused primarily on the domestic market but has recently expanded into the Mexican market as well. The company has steadily built up a strong sales organization and offers an advanced e-commerce solution for seals. CRC Distribution generates annual external sales of just over SEK 170 M.

 

“As an authorized distributor of Trelleborg’s seals, CRC has demonstrated deep knowledge of sealing applications and outstanding customer service. The acquisition will strengthen Trelleborg’s customer offering, particularly toward mid-sized manufacturing companies and businesses focused on maintenance, repair, and operation of industrial equipment,” says Jürgen Bosch, President of the Trelleborg Sealing Solutions business area.

 

The transaction is expected to be finalized in the first quarter of 2025.
