Case Systems buys Canadian company

Case Systems of Midland is expanding, with the purchase of Ontario company CIF Lab Solutions. CIF makes wood casework for university, research, government, healthcare and K-12 environments, which complements Case's offerings of plastic laminate casework and steel adjustable workstations.

"Case Systems has a strong established position in the K-12 market segment -- by purchasing the assets of CIF, we can offer additional value to our customers with a more robust portfolio through the combination of premium plastic laminate casework from Case Systems and premium wood casework from CIF Lab Solutions," says Richard Vander Weele, president and CEO of Case Systems.

The purchase is being made as a joint venture between Case and Northeast Interior Systems, Inc., which distributes Case products and deals with architects, contractors and other building professionals to complement their project deliveries. The two companies also have added other manufacturing companies like BOSTONtec and Artisan Millwork LLC to their stable in recent years.

While Case products are made in Midland, the CIF products will continue to be made in Vaughan, Ontario.
