The news follows the company’s expansion into a new, larger facility.
Unibloc Pump, a Kennesaw, Ga.-based manufacturer of solutions for sanitary flow-control applications, said it was acquired by May River Capital, a Chicago-based private equity firm focused on helping high-caliber industrial businesses grow and prosper.
Founded in 1984 by Harry Soderstrom, Unibloc Pump said it has built a reputation for innovation within critical sanitary process manufacturing applications, including the food and beverage, pharmaceutical, bakery and confection, meat and poultry, brewery and transportation industries. Through the leadership of Harry Soderstrom, Unibloc Pump has witnessed significant growth over the years at both its headquarters in the metro-Atlanta area, as well as its second facility located in Beckum, Germany.
