🚀 IMS Trenchless strengthens its presence in the United States through a strategic partnership with APEX CIPP Solutions 🇺🇸
The newly formed group around IMS Trenchless continues to expand its international market presence by partnering with the well-established U.S.-based distributor APEX CIPP Solutions, headquartered in Sarasota, Florida.
Founded by installers and business owners with decades of hands-on CIPP experience, APEX CIPP Solutions is recognized for its application-driven approach, technical expertise and strong customer support within the trenchless rehabilitation industry.
This partnership marks another important step in IMS’ long-term strategy to further strengthen its footprint in the U.S. market, building on its existing base in Hinesville, Georgia. Customers will benefit from closer technical support, stronger service infrastructure, expanded local inventory capacities and faster response times.
“I am thrilled to be joining such an outstanding group of innovators. With access to some of the best products in our industry, we are now able to increase our stocking levels, reduce lead times, and expand our capacity to bring more production capabilities to the United States,” says Craig Underwood, Founder of APEX CIPP Solutions.
The partnership also reflects the long-term vision of the group: building strong international market structures through close collaboration between trenchless industry founders and the financial partner Apheon. As part of this next step, Craig Underwood will join the shareholding of the overall group. 🤝
