Industrial gas distributor Maine Oxy has acquired welding products supplier Strate Welding Supply in a move that will strengthen its customer service in the eastern US.
Founded in 1951, Strate Welding Supply has 13 locations across Florida, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and New York. The company’s products include filler metals, industrial gases, plasma welding equipment, and air cleaning equipment.
As part of this transition, all current employees of Strate Welding Supply will join the Maine Oxy team.
Kelly Gentry, Chief Operating Officer of Maine Oxy, welcomed the news.
“Together, we look forward to continuing to deliver exceptional products and services to our customers while expanding our footprint in the aforementioned states.”
News of the deal follows Maine Oxy announcing its acquisition of an equity position in Pennsylvania-based Torco Supply Co., an industrial equipment supplier, back in December.

That purchase expanded Maine Oxy’s business in the Mid-Atlantic region, which covers the overlap between the Northeastern and Southeastern states.
In 2023, Maine Oxy filled over 80,000 cylinders in Naugatuck and over 200,000 in Auburn. In addition to its two main facilities, Maine Oxy also has 17 stores, with the most recent having opened in Stratford, Connecticut, back in 2022.
