Keystone Industries Acquires Infection-Control Business, EPR Industries

Keystone Industries® has announced the acquisition of EPR Industries LLC, a manufacturer of medical and dental detergent solutions, cleaners, and alcohol products located in Cinnaminson, New Jersey. EPR’s products will be added to Keystone Industries’ existing infection-control line, and rebranded under the company’s Optimize™ brand, which includes Keystone Industries’ recently-launched hand sanitizer options.

Keystone Industries and EPR began exploring this transaction before anyone had heard of the term “COVID-19.” The synergies always existed before the global health crisis struck. EPR has spent years focused on developing, manufacturing and selling environmentally-safe and effective evacuation line cleaners and ultrasonic cleaning solutions for surgical and dental instruments and dental devices, as well as other solutions in infection-control. The products have proven themselves in the marketplace with customers and partners alike. For example, EPR’s Super Vac 40 Plus is one of the evacuation-line cleaners officially-approved for use with Solmetex’s line of amalgam separators.

Keystone Industries expects to use EPR assets in many positive ways. Additionally, in a post-pandemic world, the demand for cleaning and sanitizing products are on the rise as everyone adjusts to a new and uncertain reality.
