HENDRICKSON AQUIRES BRUNNER INC.
WOODRIDGE, Ill. – (Trailer Technician) – Hendrickson acquires Brunner International Inc. based in Medina, New York and Brunner Manufacturing and Sales LTD. based in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. Brunner is a privately owned business that manufactures components for the Commercial Vehicle, Bus and Trailer Markets. Brunner’s primary product lines include brake shoes and s-cams. These products complement Hendrickson’s primary business of designing and manufacturing suspension systems for the medium- and heavy-duty truck and trailer markets.
The Brunner product brand will be kept and used going forward. Brunner will operate as a division of Hendrickson Brake and Wheel End and its approximately 325 employees will become employees of Hendrickson.
“We are excited about this acquisition, as it will provide a platform for Hendrickson to expand our core competency in braking and provide additional components that will enhance our existing product portfolio.
