The acquisition marks FCH’s expansion into the twin-screw pump arena and strengthens its position as a technology-driven manufacturer in hygienic fluid handling applications. FCH provides highly engineered sanitary and high-purity flow components for market-critical applications within the data cooling, food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries. 

Axiflow is recognized for its proprietary twin-screw pump technology designed for demanding sanitary environments requiring product integrity, reliability and cleanability. The addition of Axiflow enhances FCH’s technical capabilities and broadens its ability to support customers with complex, high-purity process requirements.

Axiflow will continue to operate with commercial autonomy, maintaining its existing sales organization, customer relationships and technical focus. Its engineering and manufacturing teams will collaborate with FCH’s broader technical resources to enhance application support and ensure long-term product availability.

“The addition of Axiflow to the FCH platform enhances our ability to meet the needs of sanitary process customers,” said Scott Kerns, CEO of FCH. “By combining Axiflow’s specialized twin-screw pump technology with FCH’s resources, we can deliver more responsive service and a broader range of reliable, high-quality solutions, while preserving the technical focus and customer relationships that define Axiflow.”

The transaction represents the ninth acquisition since Audax Private Equity acquired FCH in 2022, and reflects continued investment in proprietary technology and manufacturing capabilities serving hygienic and high-performance process markets.
