Exeter, New Hampshire-based Anvil International announced April 2 it acquired the assets of FlexHead Industries and SprinkFLEX, which manufacture and hold patents for both FlexHead and SprinkFLEX brands of adjustable sprinkler piping drops.

The acquisition strengthens Anvil International’s fire protection product package, according to Dean Taylor, the company’s vice president.

“This acquisition broadens our fire products portfolio,” Taylor said. “We can now service our distribution with traditional threaded fittings, grooved fittings and couplings, and now flexible sprinkler piping. The Flexhead product suite and its sales team are great additions and we look forward to having them on our team. Our team is very excited about bringing this world class fire protection package to the industry.”

“We continue to look to expand our product offering and give our customers a choice of joining methods and products," Anvil International CEO Tom Fish said. "No other manufacturer offers this many options. This acquisition is an outstanding strategic fit for Anvil as we look to grow our business.”
