Gas-Fired Products Acquires Manufacturer
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Gas-Fired Products Inc. has acquired Denlar Fire Protection, a manufacturer of pre-engineered fire-suppression kitchen hoods. The acquisition of Denlar adds a fourth brand to those offered by Gas-Fired Products, which was founded in 1949.
Based in Chester, Connecticut, Denlar is one of the first companies in its industry to manufacture a fully integrated pre-engineered fire-suppression hood range system, a press release from Gas-Fired Products said. Denlar markets its hoods to market segments that include student housing, senior living residences, churches, and police facilities.
“Denlar Fire Protection is a tremendous addition to Gas-Fired Products and one in keeping with our commitment to delivering high-quality products that are safe, reliable, and efficient,” said Gas-Fired Products president Frank Horne. “We are excited about the opportunities to expand upon the success of Denlar while levering the engineering and management expertise of our team at Gas-Fired Products.”
Gas-Fired Products’ offerings in addition to Denlar include two brands of commercial, industrial, and residential heaters, Space-Ray and SunStar, as well as the BulkTobac line of tobacco-curing equipment and accessories that date back to the company’s founding. The company’s heaters are marketed throughout the U.S. and abroad in Europe, Latin America, and Asia.
A fourth-generation, family-owned company, Gas-Fired Products designs, engineers, and manufactures its products at its 156,000-square-foot plant in Charlotte, North Carolina.
