PAYNESVILLE, Minn. — Valley Industries has completed the acquisition of Comet USA, a Minnesota-based company located in Burnsville that distributes a wide range of industrial high pressure plunger pumps and accessories. For over 20 years Comet USA has provided products and services to industries such as sewer jetting, hydro excavation, hydro demolition, high pressure cleaning, water jet cutting, and other industrial applications in the North American Market. The purchase will diversify Valley Industries product lineup and will complement their current Comet Diaphragm Pump Division.

 “In the last 6 years Valley and Comet USA shared the same infrastructure and management. This acquisition will maintain that, but will allow us to further align our core business functions,” said Jeff Savage, Valley Industries’ general manager.

Under Valley Industries, Comet USA will now be known as Comet Industrial Pump Division. This is the second acquisition for Valley Industries in the last year. In early 2017, Valley Industries purchased A1 Mist Sprayers, a company based in Nebraska that specializes in mist sprayers for a wide range of agricultural industries.

Based in Paynesville, Minn., Valley Industries is an innovative manufacturer and distributor of fluid handling components for agriculture, pest control, lawn care and many industrial applications.  For more information on Valley Industries and its brands, please visit www.valleyind.com.  For more information on Comet Pump Industrial Division please visit www.cometpump.com.
