WorldWide Drilling Resource

34 SEPTEMBER 2019 WorldWide Drilling Resource ® Pro-Certified Product Specialists Since 1955 Information Provided by Boshart Industries Boshart has been developing Pro-Certified Plumbing and Water Well accessory products since 1955. Consistently delivering quality products is a direct result of being in their customer's shoes. Founder Mel Boshart began his pursuit for this high standard back when he ran a pump installation and repair business in the 1950s from his home in Crosshill, Ontario, Canada. With first-hand knowl- edge of the consequences when products fail, this began a culture of continually delivering high product standards to support the residential, commercial, and industrial contractor in every region across North America. Today, under the leadership of Mel's son Gary and the executive team, Boshart Industries has grown to include a head office with over 120,000 square feet, two U.S. locations, and more than 140 employees. The company proudly serves industries including Plumbing and Heating; Water Well; Irrigation; Industrial; Pool and Spa; along with Waterworks. The acquisition of Flomatic in 2012, strengthened both companies through their shared vision. Most recently, the company is in full production of a comprehensive industrial / municipal pitless well sys- tem series, as well as swing check valves and combination ball / swing check valves which includes “quiet” models. Boshart takes pride in developing an extensive list of products to their own specifications through its research and develop- ment department's drafting and 3-D printing capabilities. Using stringent quality control standards, the company manufactures products which are built to last. By investing in quality control equipment, alloy analyzing, and leak / burst detection, they ensure customers receive top-quality products.
