Pentair Ltd. is a multinational industrial company incorporated in Ireland and headquartered in Worsley, Greater Manchester, UK, with its main U.S. office located near Minneapolis, Minnesota. With 2013 revenues of US$7.5 billion, Pentair employs more than 30,000 people worldwide. In Oct. 2001, a number of Pentair's Delta unit woodworking tools won top awards from the editors of leading trade publications. ==Acquisitions== In 2004, Pentair bought WICOR Industries, the former water systems subsidiary of Wisconsin Energy, for $850 million. WICOR made water pumps, filters, and pool equipment components under the Sta-Rite, SHURflo, and Hypro brands. In 2005, Pentair bought some of the assets of APW for $144 million, including McLean Thermal Management, Aspen Motion Technologies, and Electronic Solutions, all of which provide thermal management products〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Pentair Thermal Management in Russia )〕 and integration services to the telecom, medical, and security industries. This broadened Pentair's technical products line to include markets outside of the traditional electrical and electronics businesses. In 2006, Pentair purchased Germany-based Jung Pumpen GmbH, which makes pumps and other products for wastewater processing. The deal was completed in early 2007 for $227 million. Other acquisitions in 2005 and 2006 included Acu-Trol, Inc., Delta Environmental Products, selected assets of Krystal Klear, and a 70% stake in Beijing Jieming Tiandi Environmental Equipment (which was later renamed to Beijing Pentair Water Jieming), which produces fiberglass-reinforced pressure tanks and filters. The company has announced an agreement to acquire water filtration and separation firm Porous Media for approximately $225 million. It has said that it plans to continue an active course of acquisitions, especially to grow its business outside the U.S. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pentair」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
