US: AMSCO Wear Products has announced its acquisition of wear parts supplier Global Partners Alliance. Following the deal, AMSCO Wear Products will also become the exclusive sales agent for Germany-based Stahlwerke Bochum, which supplies equipment including heat-treated alloy hammers, in North America.
AMSCO Wear Products vice president Sharon Morris said "We've always been committed to offering our customers the best wear-resistant castings for metals recycling, surface mining and waste-to-energy industries. When the opportunity to purchase Global Wear Products and partner directly with Stahlwerke Bochum came up, we were eager to work together. Knowing they had a great product and seeing how our values aligned, it was an easy decision.”
