Private equity firm Mill Point Capital announced June 5 that it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Total Safety Supplies & Solutions — the MRO, PPE and industrial safety supplies distribution division of Total Safety U.S., Inc.

Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. The deal is subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions, and is expected to close later in 2026.

Fairfield, California-based TSSS distributes industrial tools and supplies, including MRO products, PPE, fall protection products, safety supplies and consumables. The company serves large industrial end users across the utility, transportation and downstream sectors.

TSSS operates 13 distribution centers, 20 on-site customer stores and more than 850 vendor-managed inventory solutions. Total Safety’s website says its safety supplies and equipment business offers more than 130,000 SKUs of PPE, tools and consumables.

Mill Point said the acquisition represents its 20th corporate carve-out transaction. The New York-based private equity firm targets control investments in lower-middle-market companies across the business services, industrials and IT services sectors.

“On behalf of the entire TSSS organization, I am thrilled to be partnering with Mill Point as we begin our next chapter as an independent platform business,” TSSS President Sean Nacey said in the announcement. “Mill Point’s deep domain knowledge of value-add distribution, along with their operational resources and value creation focus, are an ideal fit for our employees, customers and suppliers.”

Mill Point Founder and Managing Partner Michael Duran said TSSS is a “high-quality distribution platform with deeply embedded customer relationships and a differentiated service model that is difficult to replicate.”

Duran added that Mill Point will promote Nacey to CEO after the deal closes.

Total Safety CEO Brad Clark said the transaction will allow Total Safety to increase its focus on safety and compliance services.
