TransTech Group (TransTech), a portfolio company of Bridge Industries (Bridge), has announced the acquisition of the North American business of Koch Heat Transfer (KHT), a global leader in the design and manufacture of heat transfer equipment and technologies, by its subsidiary Metalforms.

The acquisition marks a significant milestone for both companies and is set to redefine the landscape of heat transfer solutions in the energy and industrial sectors.

Metalforms, a long-time partner of KHT, will continue to manufacture KHT brand's North American products under the new brand Metalforms Heat Transfer. Production will occur at Metalforms' Beaumont, Texas, US facility, where the bulk of KHT's domestic replacement bundles and heat exchangers were previously produced. Based in Beaumont and Houston, Texas, Metalforms will leverage the combined strengths of its existing capabilities and assets together with KHT's BROWN FINTUBE®, TWISTED TUBE®, LOK-FLANGE®, ALCO PRODUCTS®, BAS-TEX, and BOS-HATTEN, to deliver heat transfer solutions to North American customers.

As an established fabrication partner to KHT with an understanding of KHT's products and technologies, Metalforms is uniquely positioned to build on KHT's strengths, while expanding its capabilities and geographical footprint.

"Building on our existing partnership allows us to maintain our commitment to delivering the highest-quality, innovative products, while enhancing our capabilities - and responsiveness." said Shally Rudra, Sales Director, Metalforms Heat Transfer, and former KHT executive.
