With the acquisition, Stellar Industries will be able to include fuel and lube trucks into its line of service trucks while working to ensure a smooth integration of the two companies

Stellar Industries has acquired Elliott Machine Works, a manufacturing company based in Galion, Ohio, to enhance its growth and product offerings. Elliott Machine Works produces mobile fuel and lube service equipment with a portfolio that includes fuel trucks, lube trucks, water trucks, lube skids, vacuum tanks and other mobile service equipment.

“By incorporating fuel trucks and lube trucks into our existing line of service trucks, we can now serve a broader mission, reach more customers and meet their needs even better by filling gaps in our offerings,” said Dave Zrostlik, president of Stellar. “We anticipate that our customers will start to send more opportunities our way, and we’re ready to deliver. In addition, this acquisition strengthens our commitment to rural communities, ensuring we are making the biggest impact to the places our employees call home.”

The acquisition will not only enhance Stellar’s work truck product offerings but also benefit its vendors, distributors and customers by adding complementary products that serve many of the same markets, including mining, construction and oil and gas. The Elliott manufacturing facility and main office will remain in Galion, Ohio, where it will continue to manufacture the full lineup of specialized service trucks.

“By maintaining operations in Ohio and integrating Elliott’s talented workforce, we are not only preserving jobs but also enhancing economic stability in the region,” noted Zrostlik. “This commitment reflects our dedication to supporting local economies and the communities we serve.”

In addition, joining the Stellar team opens the door to new opportunities for career development and growth for Elliott employees with access to a broader network, expanded roles and additional resources and training.

Finally, Stellar will also work to keep the integration seamless during the acquisition. “Leadership from both organizations will work closely together to ensure a smooth transition, fostering open communication and supporting all employees throughout this process,” Zrostlik said.
