ABS also said the acquisition will also allow it to “service their existing customers with economical stand-alone drying solutions,” while Thoreson McCosh customers will be introduced to ABS’s products for bulk solids handling, storage, and blending.

With the addition of Thoreson McCosh, ABS now has 117 employees operating at two locations, the release added.
