“This partnership offers several synergistic benefits for both companies and is another step toward our goal of growing our industrial revenue streams,” CARBO CEO Gary Kolstad added.
The planned partnership is subject to the negotiation and execution of definitive documentation, which is anticipated to occur before the end of this year.
