Transchem acquired by Dover
Dover has acquired Transchem, one of the largest suppliers of car wash chemistry in the US. Transchem becomes part of OPW’s Vehicle Wash Solutions business within Dover’s Clean Energy & Fueling segment.
Transchem is based in Cambridge, Ontario. It employs about 80 people and has been active in the car wash industry for over 45 years.
Most people know Transchem from the Turtle Wax® Pro product line. But they also are responsible for the True Vue 2 chemical management systems, ClearWash water reclaim systems, and Digital Mosaic, a technology platform that enables car wash operators to manage subscription and loyalty programs.
Huge portfolio
With the addition of Transchem’s offerings, OPW VWS’s product portfolio is among the most comprehensive in the industry. They offer tunnel and in-bay automatic wash systems, payment terminals, process controls, site management software, automation systems and now chemistry and water reclaim systems.
“We are excited to have Transchem join the OPW team, helping us grow our portfolio of market-leading brands,” said Keith Moye, Vice President and General Manager of OPW VWS. “With Transchem, OPW can now offer its customers and channel partners a broader set of chemical products that deliver excellent wash performance and water reclaim technology that reduces water usage and lowers operators’ costs. We look forward to driving significant growth synergies leveraging our combined product offering and channel to a large customer base across North America.”
