Aegion continues western expansion with acquisition of underground utilities company Toncco
(UI) – Aegion Corporation, a provider of infrastructure maintenance, rehabilitation and technology-enabled water solutions, announced the acquisition of Toncco, an underground utilities company based in Ogden, Utah. Toncco will now operate as part of Insituform, an Aegion portfolio company.
Founded in 2019 by CJ Nix, Toncco found its niche as a water utility maintenance and emergency service provider for underground sanitary sewer, storm sewer and potable water pipes across Utah. Today, Toncco has grown to become one of the most trusted pipe rehabilitation firms servicing municipal and private developer clients across the state of Utah.
“This is yet another exciting addition for Aegion,” said Rob Tullman, President and CEO, Aegion. “The acquisition of Toncco and its fantastic team continues our geographic expansion in the west with more negotiated and emergency maintenance contracts.”
Toncco employees and facilities will remain in place in Utah for the foreseeable future.
