The Tustin Group of Companies announces the acquisition of Tilley Fire Equipment Company of Doylestown, PA.  Tilley Fire Equipment Company specializes in state-of-the-art fire protection systems and inspection services for businesses, institutions, industries, and commercial operations.  The acquisition represents a natural extension of The Tustin Group of Companies’ vision to be a one-stop shop for building management services including mechanical and HVAC systems, water solutions, automation controls and construction services.
“A key element of our growth strategy has been to expand our building management services business through a combination of organic and inorganic growth,” said The Tustin Group of Companies Chief Executive Officer, Tus Sasser.  “Joining forces with Tilley Fire Equipment Company provides the kind of increasing depth of services we are looking to offer our clients. Our companies already share many of the same customers, and we intend to enhance and expand these essential relationships.  Adding this additional capability to the portfolio of services that the group offers is a huge opportunity to leverage our individual company strengths to provide a broader array of services for our collective customers.”
“We are very excited to join the Tustin Group of Companies,” said Joe Creighton, President of Tilley Fire Equipment Company. “The partnership extends our capabilities and enables our clients to get better, increased and one stop building management services.”  Tilley Fire Equipment Company will continue to operate under its own distinct brand identity, as part of the Tustin Group of Companies.
Like The Tustin Group of Companies, Tilley Fire Equipment Company is a privately owned and operated business.  “We seek to partner with companies whose services enhance our current offerings and whose culture and values mirror our own, and Tilley Fire Equipment Company fits all these criteria” said Sasser. “Our shared philosophy is a natural extension to our business and we expect the transition to be seamless. Customers should not notice any changes to the operations.  However, they can anticipate added value and an improved ability to service them more efficiently.”
