SPX FLOW Inc says it has fully integrated the additions to its mixing solutions portfolio, creating a bigger, more technologically advanced offering for customers.

By combining these legacy companies and brands – Lightnin, Plenty, Stelzer, Uutechnic and Philadelphia Mixing Solutions – both new and existing customers now have access to the best solution across all brands, it said.

“Together they bring industry-leading technical know-how to deliver solutions in a wide variety of industries, including specialty chemicals, mining and minerals, food and beverage, personal care, pharmaceuticals, environmental and wastewater, green technologies end markets,” the company said.

Ankur Jain, SPX FLOW’s Director of Product Management of Mixing Solutions, said: “SPX FLOW has taken the best of already trusted brands to build something truly unique for our customers. It’s an example where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Alone these brands were already top-notch trusted brands. Together, they are now truly the best of the best.”

Some of the greatest benefits for customers the company highlighted include:

• Easy access to the best process know-how: Combining industry-leading brands ensures a wide variety of specialised mixing expertise to solve complex problems. Globally connected teams of industry experts offer a truly unique service to customers at their doorsteps;
• Offering a greater array of solutions: Customers no longer need to search out multiple companies to solve their mixing needs. Customers have the options to choose from different solutions to satisfy their specific needs;
• More locations worldwide, including manufacturing, service centres and innovation labs; and
• Dedicated aftermarket and service organisation to enhance end-user operations.

“Not only are we able to offer better services and opportunities to our existing customers, but we can reach more customers and end-users and support them with our services,” Jain said. “By combining forces, we can offer our solutions and expertise in new markets and geographies, meaning a customer now has access to SPX FLOW Mixing Solutions and our expertise, trusted quality and aftermarket support at their doorstep.”

SPX Flow says it has a rich history and legacy with more than 1 million mixers installed worldwide. It also has a dedicated footprint of more than 92,000 sq.m consisting of state-of-the-art production facilities and service centres, along with four innovation and design centres spread across the world to run customer trials, innovate new solutions and develop technical advancements.

This move follows hot on the heels of SPX FLOW being acquired by an affiliate of Lone Star Funds.
