“Our greatest asset is the skill of our craftspeople and by joining forces, our firms have boldly expanded our capabilities and expertise,” said Dick Polich, Founder of Polich Tallix. “We celebrate this union of two like-minded companies, and we look forward to continuing to provide the highest quality foundry and fabrication services.”
UAP North American President Ben Tait added, “The purchase of Polich Tallix marks an incredibly exciting moment in the growth and story of our US business.
