announced the acquisition of Houston Service Industries. HSI had revenues in the last 12 months of $37 million and 123 employees. The company is a leading manufacturer of multistage centrifugal blowers, a traditional low pressure technology. It has recently introduced high-speed drive turbo blowers, which is an innovative and energy-efficient technology.
