Scruggs Company and Neil Technical Services (NTS), a portfolio company of Rox Capital Partners, have acquired Mid-America Valve (MAV), a Kansas-based distributor serving the water and wastewater industry. The acquisition expands Scruggs/NTS’s geographic reach and strengthens its ability to provide integrated products and services to municipalities, utilities, and industrial clients.
MAV, which distributes valves, fittings, and other products essential to water and wastewater infrastructure across Kansas and the broader Midwest, will continue operating under its current name while integrating with Scruggs/NTS’s platform. The combined operations aim to offer a wider range of products and service capabilities to customers.
Dan Myers, president of Scruggs Company, described the acquisition as “an important step in our strategy to build a full-service, multi-state platform for the water and wastewater sector. MAV has established trusted customer relationships and a strong market presence. Together, we can deliver greater value through expanded products, responsive service, and broader coverage.”
Al Cameron, managing partner at Rox Capital Partners, said the transaction brings MAV’s expertise together with Scruggs/NTS’s service offerings. “Customers in the Midwest will benefit from a complete solution—reliable products backed by technical field services that maximize system performance,” Cameron said.
The acquisition is part of Rox Capital Partners’ broader strategy of growing portfolio companies by partnering with established regional distributors. Scruggs/NTS plans to leverage MAV’s regional presence and customer relationships to provide a broader product range and integrated service support.
Headquartered in Houston, Scruggs Company and NTS provide products, solutions, and field services to the water and wastewater industry, while MAV distributes essential infrastructure products for municipalities and utilities across the Midwest. Rox Capital Partners, a private investment firm, focuses on partnering with founder- and family-owned businesses to accelerate growth.
