Stemco Completes Goodyear Springs Purchase

LONGVIEW, TX – Less than a month after the truck component supplier Stemco announced its intention to acquire the manufacturer of Goodyear air springs, it completed the deal on July 1. 

Terms of the transaction have not been released.

With the acquisition, Stemco acquires the Super Cushion and Spring Ride lines of truck, trailer and truck cab suspension products, as well as cab seat springs from ContiTech, a division of Continental Corp..

This unit was part of the business called Veyance that was recently acquired by Continental.

Also included in the acquisition are the Veyance manufacturing facility in San Luis Potosi, Mexico, the Veyance research and development operations in Fairlawn, Ohio, and all North America related patents and applications.

“The Goodyear air springs business carries with it a strong brand presence and premium product performance,” said Todd Anderson, Stemco president. “Customers will be able to count on the same consistent product performance and brand attributes, as the products will continue to be manufactured in the same facility and engineered by the same design team with the same support functions, in addition to gaining the support of the entire Stemco team.”
