Baxter Marine Group subsidiary SeaKits acquires TruPlug
Premier Damage Control Solutions provider enhances its lineup of products
BONITA SPRINGS, Fla., May 13, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Baxter Marine Group subsidiary SeaKits, the premier provider of Damage Control solutions in the marine industry, announced today the acquisition of TruPlug, the manufacturer of the modern alternative to wooden emergency plugs. TruPlug is used by military and commercial vessels in some of the most demanding environments on the planet. TruPlug is an essential element in damage control preparedness.
Henry Goldman, the company's founder and product inventor explains, "TruPlug has been an invaluable tool for commercial, recreational and military vessels for over ten years. If you consider a 2-inch hole in your boat, one foot below the waterline would fill a 55 gallon drum in as little as 40 seconds, stopping the water flow is essential. That makes TruPlug a must-have item on board any vessel. I am delighted to pass on TruPlug's success and reputation to a company that is committed to safety in the marine industry."
"We are very pleased to add TruPlug to the SeaKits Damage Control suite of products," said April Stercula, Baxter CEO. "Henry's commitment to safety on the water is a testament to the quality of the TruPlug brand."
