Founded in 1981, Jadler Industries has earned a solid reputation for delivering high-performance fluid handling products, engineered systems, and project management solutions across a broad range of industries. Its offering spans sanitary equipment, industrial instrumentation, and remote monitoring solutions, with a core strength in food & beverage and process industry hygienic applications, which account for approximately 50% of total sales.
The acquisition of Jadler follows AxFlow’s earlier geographic expansions into South Africa (2016), Australia, and New Zealand (2018), and is a testament to the Group’s ambition to provide industry-leading solutions across global markets.
AxFlow Group CEO Ole Weiner commented:
“This acquisition represents a highly strategic step for AxFlow, aligning with our long-term growth plan and allowing us to enter the Canadian market with strength and confidence. Jadler Industries is a strong match with AxFlow—not only in terms of its product portfolio and customer base, but also through its turnkey system capabilities and proven expertise in fluid handling for industrial and hygienic applications. Their team’s ability to design, install, and support complex process systems, combined with their deep Food & Beverage knowledge, complements AxFlow’s ambition to become an even more solution-oriented provider. We are particularly impressed by the drive and vision of Jadler’s management team, and we look forward to building a scalable and thriving business in Canada together.”
Jadler’s extensive product range includes over 30 trusted brands, with a strong focus on SPX Flow technologies such as Waukesha, APV, and Gerstenberg Schroder—product lines that AxFlow has been representing across Europe for over 60 years. The company also serves strategic regional segments in Alberta, including agriculture, mining, oil & gas, municipal water & wastewater, and general industry, supplying essential components like pumps, valves, flow meters, and heat exchangers.
Brad Smith, President and Partner of Jadler Industries, stated:
“We are excited to join forces with AxFlow, a strategic partner that brings unmatched experience in fluid handling, particularly within hygienic applications and with leading SPX Flow brands. This partnership creates new opportunities for Jadler’s continued growth in Canada. We look forward to leveraging AxFlow’s operational excellence in sales, supply chain, marketing, IT, and finance as we take Jadler to the next level. Together, we can enhance our service offering and extend our reach while staying true to our commitment to technical expertise and customer satisfaction.”
The acquisition is also a strong fit from a supplier alignment perspective, ensuring continuity and support from long-standing partnerships, and paving the way for shared knowledge and synergies across the AxFlow Group.
