Cablofil/Legrand has announced the acquisition of California-based PW Industries, a leading manufacturer of cable trays and prefabricated wiring systems, including ladder tray, ventilated and solid bottom tray, one-piece channel tray, and single-rail cable management, as well as prefabricated branch circuit wiring systems.

PW Industries' line of ladder tray complements Cablofil wire basket tray products, providing more overhead wire and cable management options and solutions that enhance contractor productivity.  PW Industries offers a wide variety of trays that provide significant productivity advantages.  Beyond its standard tray, PW has a reputation for its project services and design innovations like prefabricated tray that saves time on the job.  PW is recognized in the industry for design innovation and value-added project services.

"We are excited that the PW Industries offering expands our core competency of product innovation and service differentiation," said Tim Place, vice president and general manager of Cablofil/Legrand.  "Cablofil wire basket tray has a great track record of increasing contractor productivity and PW Industries offers similar benefits with its NEMA-type trays and prefabricated wiring systems.  We know that the two brands will offer powerful solutions to electrical contractors and datacom installers."

Dana Black, vice president, sales, of PW Industries, said, "Becoming part of Cablofil/Legrand and the worldwide Legrand family opens new markets for our products, particularly in Canada and Europe."
