Houston — RectorSeal Corp., a leading manufacturer of quality plumbing and HVAC/R products, acquired selected assets and the SureSeal brand from SureSeal Manufacturing (SSM) of Tacoma, Wash. 

SSM manufactures and distributes SureSeal, the leading brand of waterless floor drain trap seals. “SureSeal is established as the premier brand in this category, therefore it’s a natural fit that provides RectorSeal with an outstanding growth opportunity,” said David Smith, President of Houston-based RectorSeal.

The SSM product line consists of ASSE-1072-certified SureSeal floor drain trap seals (aka waterless trap primers) and two upcoming products.

"We are excited to expand our relationship with RectorSeal, because they have the industry connections, distribution network and organizational resources that are key to taking SureSeal to the next level and beyond," said Kevin Huber, Senior Vice President of Business Development of the surviving company, which has been renamed Specialty Plumbing Products Manufacturing LLC (SPP).
