Kansas City, MO-based pipe, valve and fittings redistributor and manufacturer Midland Industries ― a portfolio company of Gemspring Capital ― has acquired Trading Services International, LLC (TSI).

Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

Founded in 1988 and headquartered in New York, TSI is a distributor of fittings, valves, coils and other components primarily serving the HVAC market. The company specializes in difficult-to-source aluminum, copper and brass products.

Midland said the acquisition will expand its product portfolio, enhance its presence in attractive end markets and strengthen its position within OEM channels. TSI’s technical expertise and differentiated product offering complement Midland’s platform and further enhance its ability to deliver high-quality products, value-added services and reliable supply chain solutions.

“TSI has built highly differentiated, longstanding customer relationships, supported by a strong reputation for quality and exceptional service,” Midland Executive Chairman Fabian de Armas said in an April 15 news release. “We are excited to welcome the TSI team to Midland. This acquisition expands our product breadth, enhances our global sourcing capabilities, and positions us to deliver an even more comprehensive offering to both new and existing customers.”

“We are excited to join the Midland platform and believe the combination creates meaningful growth opportunities for our customers and suppliers,” added Joel Darr, CEO of TSI. “Midland’s complementary portfolio, scale and operational resources will enhance our capabilities while preserving the service-first approach that has defined TSI.”

This is Midland’s third completed deal in a span of 10 months, following Industrial Specialties Manufacturing (Englewood, CO) in March and Cerro Brass (St. Louis) this past July.
