Pulaski, Va.-based Xaloy Inc. is forming a new business unit, Xaloy Extrusion, after acquiring the extrusion business of Dynisco LLC.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Headquartered in Hickory, N.C., Xaloy Extrusion will take on the sales and support of its own screws, bimetallic barrels and heat-transfer roils used in extrusion processes, along with Dynisco’s line of auxiliary equipment for plastics extrusion including gear pumps, screen changers, cleaning ovens and pelletizers.
