"We are proud of what the team has accomplished and believe Crane is well-positioned to support TPU in its next phase of growth." "The progress TPU has achieved is a direct reflection of the talent and expertise of our team," said Bryan Voytilla, President of Trillium Pumps US. "Together, we have advanced the business, improved performance and delivered consistently for our customers. We are proud of what we have built and look forward to the opportunities ahead alongside Crane." "This transaction demonstrates the seamless execution of our value creation strategy," said Kerem Yilmaz, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Trillium Flow Technologies. "As we move toward closing, we remain focused on ensuring business continuity and a smooth transition for our customers, employees, and other stakeholders." "TPU's performance and market position reflect the strength of the business and the work accomplished through our partnership with the Trillium management team," said Jeff Quake, Managing Partner at First Reserve. "We are proud of the progress achieved at TPU and believe this transaction positions the business well for continued success with Crane."
