(From Tuthill Corporation)
Tuthill Corporation (“Tuthill”), a privately held business with a 130-year history of industrial manufacturing, has entered into an agreement to acquire EaglePicher Technologies (“EaglePicher”). The transaction is expected to close in 2023, subject to required regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.
Jay Tuthill, Chairman of Tuthill, is clearly excited. “It’s taken 130 years for Tuthill to reach this place – a place where we are able to join forces with a company like EaglePicher. It’s required the combined efforts of thousands of good people to make this possible.
"It’s a personal thing for me. I come from a military family. I believe in a strong America. I’m thrilled to know that, through EaglePicher, Tuthill will now be a direct contributor to the defense, space, and aviation industries that help to keep our country at the forefront.”

“Beginning in 2020, Tuthill intentionally divested its legacy industrial operations, with the aim of putting the company in strong position to make an acquisition like EaglePicher. This acquisition creates an exciting time for the employees of EaglePicher and Tuthill. It marks a significant step in our joint pursuit of excellence. The combination of these two storied franchises will allow us to deliver ever better products and services that safeguard our country. We look forward to bringing a new energy to EaglePicher,” said Steven Westfall CEO & President of Tuthill.
