NEW YORK, July 2, 2012 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- GenNx360 Capital Partners announced today that it has partnered with company management to acquire Schramm, Inc.
Schramm is a West Chester, Pennsylvania-based manufacturer of mobile land based drilling rigs used in a variety of demanding applications, including oil & gas drilling, mineral exploration, water and geothermal well drilling, and other drilling activities to depths of 15,000 feet. The Company's products are designed to make the drilling process safer, faster, and more efficient for its customers and end users and are sold globally under the registered trade names Schramm®, Telemast®, Loadsafe®, i-Control® and air-Control® to a diverse blue-chip customer base.
