Van Tongeren International Ltd. located in Godalming, England has agreed to acquire NextGen Cyclones, LLC. located in Lebanon, Pennsylvania, USA. Both companies have extensive experience and expertise in designing, manufacturing and servicing catalyst recovery cyclones used by the Petroleum Refining and Petrochemical industries. Carrying on the great tradition of Van Tongeren, the new affiliate will be Van Tongeren America, LLC

“There are a limited number of cyclone suppliers,” said James Miller, Vice President Engineering and Technology. “With locations on both sides of the Atlantic, Van Tongeren can better serve the global market.”

Van Tongeren first started in Holland in 1927 introducing a greatly improved type of cyclone far superior in efficiency to the generally available designs at that time. Over the years, Van Tongeren technology became acknowledged throughout the industrial world as a leading authority on cyclone design and many current designs are based on the original Van Tongeren concept.

NextGen Cyclones, LLC, a company formed by individuals with decades of experience dating back to 1971, specialized in the design, fabrication and technical support services of catalyst recovery cyclones. The fusion of these two companies will improve the cost effectiveness and reliability of their product.

Van Tongeren are delighted to strengthen their worldwide position with this acquisition. The breadth of experience, dedication and skill that the people at Nextgen bring to the table will be invaluable in this move. We are looking forward to reinforcing our position as World leader in this market
