M&A Engagement Overview

Industry Groups: Business Services; Energy, Power & Infrastructure
Areas of Focus: Industrial; Products and Technology; Specialty Distribution; Water and Wastewater Solutions

Harris Williams advised United Flow Technologies, a portfolio company of H.I.G. Advantage, on their sale to Berkshire Partners. Under H.I.G.’s ownership, UFT has built a platform that unites a team of exceptional companies driven by a shared mission: to protect and enhance water resources across the communities they serve.

Clean and reliable water and wastewater systems are foundational to healthy communities and safe industrial applications. Investors are drawn to the sector’s predictable, non-discretionary demand profile, and market leaders like UFT are positioned to capitalize on these long-term secular tailwinds.

UFT carefully selects the best products and brands to offer industry-leading technical expertise and a comprehensive portfolio of process equipment, pumps, flow control, and automation and control systems. Together, UFT’s team delivers the technology, products, service and support that their customers depend on to ensure clean, healthy, and reliable water and wastewater systems.

UFT’s success alongside H.I.G.’s strategic guidance has positioned them for continued growth. The partnership with Berkshire Partners supports UFT’s expansion, enabling them to deepen their service to their customers and manufacturer partners, increase opportunities for team members, and help communities build and maintain safe, reliable water systems.
