Unprecedented Growth Launches Globally Expanding Foundation Equipment Company Pileco Inc. Into New Markets



Longtime Houston-based Pileco Inc. ignited explosive growth after joining forces with German-based BAUER Maschinen GmbH three years ago. Renowned for its technological advances and innovation in hydraulic piling hammers, Pileco Inc. seemed a natural partner for industry legend, BAUER. And together they're proving an unstoppable force within the foundation equipment and construction industry.

Since becoming a BAUER subsidiary, Pileco has recorded unprecedented growth and drafted plans for new facilities to accommodate the demand. New facilities are planned for Texas and Florida over the next two years. And the ever expanding product line and network of dealers are quickly gaining international attention.

Pileco, which currently has offices in Houston, California and Panama, is the exclusive provider of BAUER products in the western hemisphere and the master distributor of Vulcan, IHC, RTG and MAT throughout the northeastern United States and Mexico.

They have recently added the Pileco HR Hydraulic and Pileco Vibratory Hammers, as well as the BAUER BG-12H drill rig to their product line.

Before bringing Pileco's California affiliate Pilemac into Pileco Inc., the companies reported combined revenues of $16 million in 2005. Today operating under a single name, Pileco reports revenues in excess of $90 million.

"We have taken the traditional business practices and dedication to employee growth that has served us well since Pileco was founded over 40 years ago and combined it with the deeply rooted history and immense experience of BAUER," said Pileco President George Smith.

"This has enabled us to form a foundation equipment company with a strong industry presence and lasting relationships, " Smith added.

Despite the company's rapid growth and expanding market presence, Smith underscores their dedication to the personal approach and a handshake ease that has prevailed in Pileco's business practice.

Though original Pileco founder, Otto Kammerer, has passed on his executive duties, he continues to clock in and monitor progress of the company whose doors he first opened in 1966. His Pileco predecessors share his innovative vision that has captured global attention and garnered well-deserved respect within the industry.

Expanding work in custom-design fabrication, Pileco Inc. simplifies the job of machine operators and meets changing industry demands. They offer an expansive line of pile driving and drilling equipment and accessories, along with industry expert knowledge and worldwide service and support.
