Air Distribution Technologies, an industry leader in designing and manufacturing high-performance products for the HVAC ecosystem and a portfolio company of Truelink Capital, announced it has completed the sale of its PennBarry business to Hessaire Products.

And for Air Distribution Technologies, the transaction aligns with its broader strategy of refining its portfolio and focusing on core HVAC brands, including Ruskin, Titus, Krueger, Tuttle & Bailey, and other businesses within the platform.
The companies said they will work closely together to ensure a smooth transition for customers, employees, and partners.
