SiteOne Landscape Supply acquires Reinders

LOGOS: SITEONE and REINDERS

SiteOne Landscape Supply recently announced that it has acquired Reinders, a fifth-generation, family-owned distributor of irrigation, agronomics and more with 12 locations across Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas and Minnesota. With more than 150 years of industry leadership, Reinders has become known for its technical expertise, rapid on-site diagnostics, tailored product recommendations and service from a team of trained professionals.

Reinders evaluated multiple options for its future before choosing to partner with SiteOne, citing shared values, a focus on the green industry, strong resources and capabilities and a commitment to preserving its legacy. Reinders will continue operating under its established name, maintaining the customer relationships and service model that have defined the company, while leveraging the full resources and capabilities of SiteOne.

“As a very successful fifth-generation, family-owned company, Reinders is well-known and respected in the green industry for quality and reliability, a commitment to exceptional customer service and for helping their customers succeed — values we share at SiteOne,” said Doug Black, chairman and CEO of SiteOne. “This acquisition expands our ability to offer the full line of landscape supplies to our combined customers, enhances our presence in the market and provides an avenue for further expansion in the growing Midwest market. We’re excited to welcome Ann Reinders and the talented Reinders team to the SiteOne family and look forward to working together to serve landscape professionals throughout the Midwest and beyond.”

“For more than 150 years, we have built a name, a brand and a legacy in the green industry,” said Ann Reinders, VP of operations at Reinders, who will remain with the business following the acquisition. “While the Reinders family has led the company for five generations, it’s our incredible people who have built the brand. SiteOne is the best partner to continue to further the service excellence and quality products the green industry deserves. I look forward to leading Reinders into our next phase, strengthened by the infrastructure, leadership and people-focused approach SiteOne provides.”

“Joining SiteOne allows Reinders to leverage the strengths of both organizations to provide superior customer service well into the future,” said Craig Reinders, CEO of Reinders. Craig will move on to lead Spartan Turf Products, the Reinders family Toro distribution business.  “The alignment between the core values of SiteOne and Reinders creates a powerful foundation, uniquely positioning Reinders to elevate the level of service and support its customers rely on — now and in the years ahead.”

The partnership underscores both companies’ long-term commitment to the green industry and to strengthening the distribution network that turf professionals depend on every day. Customers should continue working with their local Reinders teams as usual while the companies thoughtfully integrate over time.

Liphatech: TakeDown II series

IMAGE: LIPHATECH

For effective control of tough rodent infestations, pest management professionals (PMPs) can turn to TakeDown II. As an acute rodenticide for the professional pest control market, TakeDown II provides faster results than anticoagulant rodenticides, the company says. A lethal dose may be consumed in one night’s feeding, though it may take two or more days for the first dead rodents to appear.

Take Down II’s active ingredient, bromethalin, is effective against house mice, Norway rats and roof rats. It can also be used to fight anticoagulant-resistant rodent populations, especially those in commercial settings.

For PMPs looking to take down rodent populations, this rodenticide is available in two formulation options. The first is an 8-gram soft bait pouch that offers a palatable bait matrix and maintains its integrity even in hot environments. PMPs can also purchase TakeDown II in 14-gram mini blocks, designed with rodent gnawing edges and a center hole for securing on vertical or horizontal rods. TakeDown II mini blocks are registered in all states except Maine.

TakeDown II is one of many intelligent solutions offered by Liphatech and supported by its team of pest control experts. These technical support specialists offer a combined 150 years of experience and can help PMPs to solve complex pest challenges.

About Liphatech

With U.S. headquarters based in Milwaukee, Wis., Liphatech is a worldwide manufacturer of pest control products. It is considered to be the developer of three of the industry’s active ingredients: chlorophacinone, bromadiolone and difethialone. The company was founded in France in 1946 io develop anticoagulants for the treatment of heart patients. It developed chlorophacinone in the 1960s and branded it as Rozol, a family of products that includes grain and pelleted products for field and structural use, and a tracking powder for use in and around structures. In the 1970s, Liphatech developed bromadiolone, its original second-generation rodenticide active ingredient.

The innovations continued with the opening of its U.S. facility in 1987. Research there and in Europe resulted in the discovery of difethialone during the late 1980s, with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency registration as an active ingredient in 1995.
