ASC Engineered Solutions Expands Portfolio with the Addition of the GroovJoint™ Brand

Oak Brook, IL | July 1, 2026 

ASC Engineered Solutions ("ASC"), a leading provider of engineered flow management solutions, today announced the acquisition of the GroovJoint™ brand, a respected name of stainless steel grooved, press, and fabricated piping systems serving the mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, fire protection, industrial, and process piping markets. 

The addition of the GroovJoint brand expands ASC's portfolio of engineered piping solutions and strengthens the company's position in the growing stainless-steel market. 

For more than 20 years, GroovJoint has earned the trust of customers through high-quality products, technical expertise, and exceptional customer service. Its commitment to innovation, craftsmanship, and an American-made foundation aligns closely with ASC's 175-year heritage of delivering reliable solutions for the built environment. 

"GroovJoint has built an outstanding brand recognized for quality, technical expertise, and customer service," said Jason Hild, CEO of ASC Engineered Solutions. "The addition of the GroovJoint brand strengthens our portfolio and expands our ability to support customers with a broader range of stainless-steel piping solutions. Together, we are building a strong foundation while continuing to invest in innovation, operational excellence, and long-term growth.” 

Customers should expect business as usual. Existing customer contacts, ordering processes, products, service teams, and support structures remain unchanged. 

By combining GroovJoint's stainless steel expertise with ASC's manufacturing, engineering, supply chain, and operational capabilities, both organizations are well positioned to deliver greater value to contractors, engineers, fabricators, distributors, and project owners. The acquisition reflects ASC's continued commitment to investing in innovative piping solutions and supporting the long-term growth of the stainless-steel market.
