Solenis, a leading global producer of specialty chemicals, will increase prices by 15 to 20 percent across all product lines in North America and Latin America, effective October 15, or as customer contracts allow.

These price increases are necessary due to unprecedented supply chain constraints and increasing costs for raw materials, transportation and packaging.

RMR Mechanical is excited to announce the acquisition of George H. Bodman, Inc. as of Thursday, September 23, 2021. Going forward, the consulting entity will be known as Bodman Services LLC, a subsidiary of RMR Mechanical. Bodman Services LLC is a reputed industry leader in their field with over 34 years of experience offering a full range of consulting services for chemical/vapor phase/mechanical cleaning applications. The acquisition has brought another area of expertise to current and future customers of both RMR Mechanical and Bodman Services as the enhanced business plan aligns perfectly with RMR Mechanical’s target market within the pulp & paper, utility and process industries.

Going forward, RMR Mechanical can offer boiler chemical cleaning as a stand-alone consulting service or enhanced service that can include mechanical preparation, subcontracting chemical cleaning services and other services to support the boiler cleaning operation in one contract. On projects where RMR Mechanical is onsite for mechanical work, this service mix can be combined into a single contract for the outage, simplifying the contractual management of the project for mill or plant personnel.

RMR Mechanical remains an industry leader as an industrial boiler and mechanical contractor. Industry analysts believe that this acquisition will lead to enhanced credibility for RMR Mechanical as the company will boast special expertise in boiler maintenance, repair and retrofits as well as expertise in chemical/mechanical cleaning consulting services.

ATLANTA (News release) — Allnorth Americas LLC (Allnorth) is pleased to announce the acquisition of Sheppard Engineering, LLC, (Sheppard Engineering), a full-service engineering consulting firm based out of Atlanta, Georgia. The agreement is effective October 1, 2021.

Like Allnorth, Sheppard Engineering works collaboratively to build custom engineering solutions that address clients’ specific requirements and priorities. With recurring business from its many long-standing client relationships, Sheppard Engineering brings new opportunities to Allnorth in industries it does not widely serve at present, such chemical and petro-chemical, food and beverage, as well as water and wastewater treatment.

“We are excited to join forces with a group of like-minded engineering professionals to jointly build on past successes in servicing a broad spectrum of clients across a variety of industries.”, says Darby Kreitz, CEO of Allnorth Consultants Limited. “Our Allnorth Americas office has traditionally provided services to the forest products industry, mostly within the pulp and paper sector. Given there isn’t tremendous client overlap in forest products, an industry we both serve, we expect to see additional opportunities there as well.”

According to Preston Sheppard, CEO of Sheppard Engineering, “This union provides a solid future and additional growth opportunities for the Sheppard team, many of whom have been with the company since its inception over 20 years ago. In addition to offering succession planning support, this alliance allows us to apply our considerable expertise to building client solutions in new sectors, such as mining, infrastructure and oil and gas, and within new geographic markets across North America and into Europe”. Allnorth sees tremendous value here for our mutual clients with Preston Sheppard bringing more than 30 years of industrial engineering experience and two decades of engineering and consulting services to the industrial sector.

Preston will continue to lead project and engineering efforts as well as maintain client relationships. He will collaborate with Jay Miele, VP Allnorth Americas, in the integration of the Sheppard team into Allnorth Americas while ensuring continuity of existing projects and addressing client needs. The integrated team will be based out of the Allnorth Americas Atlanta office in Alpharetta GA.
