ARLINGTON, VA--(Marketwire - August 28, 2007) - Ewire -- Joseph H. Highland, Ph.D., C.E.O. of
ENVIRON Holdings, Inc. (ENVIRON), and Fred Boelter, C.I.H., P.E., Founder
and Chairman of Boelter Associates, Inc. (Boelter), have announced the
acquisition of Boelter by ENVIRON -- the largest single acquisition in
ENVIRON's history. Effective immediately, Boelter will conduct business as
ENVIRON.
In making the announcement, Highland commented, "Through working together
with Fred and his colleagues, we have been impressed by Boelter's technical
expertise, professional resources, industry reputation, and marketplace
presence, which are highly compatible with ENVIRON." According to
Highland, the acquisition is ideally aligned with ENVIRON's strategy of
growing through adding talent in complementary service areas and expanding
into geographic regions where clients would directly benefit from the
firm's presence. The addition of Boelter's professionals positions us to
offer clients an expanded array of environmental and human health
consulting capabilities, particularly in the areas of industrial hygiene
and building forensics.
Boelter commented, "We are delighted to be joining ENVIRON, a firm equally
committed to the goals of maintaining scientific integrity in client
engagements and delivering value that we believe is unique in our
industry." He continued, "Professional synergies abound -- our
architectural, scientific, engineering, and geologic practice areas
complement, expand, and add practical depth to ENVIRON's established
building energy conservation and indoor environmental quality practices.
Together we make a very strong team."
