EGW and TUSCO Have Joined Forces

EGW is excited to announce that we have merged with our sister company, TUSCO. The owners of EGW originally founded TUSCO as a service and repair company to complement EGW’s powerful distribution and manufacturing offering, with both focused on the natural gas industry. As TUSCO’s business expanded and grew, they partnered with additional manufacturers and began offering equipment, horizontal directional drilling tools and supply products that EGW did not.

Thanks to a very successful business model, TUSCO has grown to a point that requires additional staff and resources. To that end, the decision has been made to unite EGW and TUSCO into one combined force. Not only will our product offering grow, we will also be able to provide additional services such as equipment repair, equipment rental, and Operator Qualification training.

While the combination of our two companies will bring about some internal changes, none of them will affect the way we do business. TUSCO will become part of what is now known as EGW Gas Solutions, and with the addition of TUSCO’s knowledgeable employees, the “Solutions” part of our name is further strengthened. The ownership of EGW remains the same, management roles will remain the same and so will most sales and customer service roles.

EGW Gas Solutions is committed to the very same principles that has made us successful in the natural gas industry since our inception. Our mission and vision depends heavily upon our ethics, strong partnerships and the support and value of each one of our team members. We look forward to continuing to exceed your expectations by providing superior customer service and quality products with the highest level of integrity.
