Wolseley UK announces the acquisition of water specialists Cascade Pipeline Corporation
Wolseley UK is delighted to announce that Wolseley Infrastructure, a key distributor to the civils and utilities markets under the Burdens & Fusion Utilities brands, has today acquired Cascade Pipeline Corporation, a leading manufacturer and supplier of specialist pipe fittings and services to the UK water sector. This acquisition will support Wolseley as they continue their growth strategy in the UK water market and offer customers a unique proposition with exclusive product ranges.
With their main site located in East Sussex, Cascade Pipeline Corporation has enjoyed strong growth in recent years, focusing on the highest levels of customer service and product expertise. This acquisition will complement Wolseley Infrastructure’s national coverage with Cascade’s unique product range and loyal customer base. Both brands will be retained along with all existing sites and personnel.
John Hancock, Managing Director of Wolseley Infrastructure commented, “We are delighted to welcome Cascade Pipeline Corporation to Wolseley. Our Fusion Utilities brand is built on industry leading expertise and great customer service, attributes which are only enhanced with the Cascade team and their innovative range of products. We look forward to providing customers of both businesses our newly enhanced product and service proposition”.
Andrew Munro, Director of Cascade Pipeline corporation commented: “Over the years Cascade has established itself as a reliable brand in the UK water industry servicing frameworks with major water authorities and supplying an extensive range of products to clients throughout the country.”
“Cascade has been approached on many occasions by parties interested in joining forces, however none of these suitors had the infrastructure, product range or reach that Wolseley have. It was an obvious choice and one that I am extremely excited about to have Wolseley take over the reins at Cascade bringing new products and opportunities to both parties and flourishing together into the future.”
