The Collins Cos., have moved into a new facilty in Aston, Pa., as of May 1.

The move will increase the efficiency of the operation, upgrading its form Pennsylvania address into an 18,000 sq. ft. office and warehouse building. The new distribution center features a newly created, two-acre paved and fenced pipe yard.

“Back in 2013, Collins acquired Apex Remington Pipe and Supply and agreed to lease their current facility, in Marcus Hook, Pa., while we familiarized ourselves with this new market and properly planned the right size and scope of their eventual permanent home,” said Brian Tuohey, president and owner “This operation has grown nicely for us over the last two years, so when the facility on Dutton Mill Road in Aston came on the market, it fit our needs perfectly to service our current business levels but most importantly it allowed us the opportunity to satisfy our future anticipated growth.”

The Pennsylvanian branch’s new address is 2939 Dutton Mill Road Aston, PA 19014. The phone and fax number remain the same.

Headquartered in East Windsor, Conn., The Collins Companies is comprised of Collins Pipe & Supply Co., Collins Controls, Niagara Controls, Collins Niagara, and Power House Supply Co., with nine locations in New England, upstate New York and now in Aston, Pa. (in the Philadelphia area).
