Jennmar has acquired the assets of the Holden, W.Va.-based cement blending facility of Wright-Mix Material Solutions, LLC. The acquisition enables additional growth and customer service for Jennmar’s Jennchem subsidiary, a leading provider of underground chemical roof support, rock stabilization, and ventilation sealing, through expanded manufacturing capabilities and product offerings.
“We are thrilled to announce the addition of the Wright-Mix blending facility to Jennchem’s portfolio of industry leading products and services. The addition of a trusted, existing partner will greatly enhance our customer service and strengthen our ability to deliver J-SEAL with the speed and efficiency our customers have come to expect,” said Tony Calandra, CEO, Jennmar. “I would like to express our sincere thanks to Kendall and Shannon Wright for their support in ensuring a smooth transition.”
Jennchem will continue production of its industry-leading J-SEAL specialized foaming cement from its existing blending facility in Delbarton, W.Va., with sales continuing to go through the company’s distribution network. As part of the acquisition, the Holden blending facility will be added to Jennchem’s portfolio and will ensure continuous production of 28-Day and 1-Day J-SEAL products.
“We are excited to welcome Wright-Mix employees to the Jennchem family. This acquisition will strengthen Jennchem’s position in the market and allow us to further improve our product offerings to customers,” added Drew Morgan, COO, Jennchem.
“Kendall and I are pleased to have achieved this milestone with our longtime partners at Jennchem,” said Shannon Wright, president and CEO of Wright Concrete and Construction. “We have collaborated with Jennchem over the last 15 years to develop and produce J-SEAL and other products. With new toll-building facilities under construction within our network, now is the right time for Jennchem to take full control of their product lines. We are confident in a bright future for our Holden employees and thank them for their loyalty and dedication.”
