Singer Industrial buys Filtration & Hose Specialties
Singer Industrial, a North American distributor of industrial rubber, fluid power and related products, acquired Filtration & Hose Specialties, LLC (FHS), an industrial supply business headquartered in Abilene, Texas, with additional locations in Cleburne and Odessa.
The acquisition expands Singer Industrial's presence in Texas and strengthens its ability to support customers across West Texas.
Founded in 2006 by Loy "Jimo" Garner, FHS has grown from a single product line into a broad supplier of filtration, hose and industrial products. Garner's grandson, Justin Harris, has been involved with the business for decades as an owner and now serves as its general manager.
The company maintains an extensive inventory that includes filters, hydraulic and industrial hose, hose assemblies and related industrial products. Its experienced team and 24/7 on-call service help customers keep critical operations running.
"Joining Singer Industrial gives FHS access to broader resources and capabilities while allowing our team to remain focused on the customers and relationships that built this business," said Harris. "We look forward to building on our product offering, technical knowledge and responsive service as part of Singer Industrial."
“We are excited to welcome the Filtration & Hose Specialties team to Singer Industrial,” said Singer Industrial CEO Pete Haberbosch. “This business is all about the people, and FHS is a team of passionate people with a long history and 100% focused on its customers! Its locations in Abilene, Cleburne, and Odessa strengthen our ability to serve customers across Texas, and we look forward to supporting the team’s continued growth.”
According to Singer Industrial, FHS will benefit from the parent company's broader product portfolio, shared resources, and network of technical expertise while remaining close to the customers and markets it serves.
