Investcorp-backed KSS has acquired Strack Scale Service, a Cincinnati-based company specializing in scale calibration and service. The acquisition strengthens KSS's position in the industrial weighing and automated control solutions market.

KSS, headquartered in Poca, West Virginia, provides mission-critical calibration, maintenance, and repair for complex industrial weighing systems. Strack Scale Service will continue to operate under its current brand, with President Christopher Geers Jr. remaining in an executive role.

This deal expands KSS's service capabilities and geographic reach. For investors, it signals continued consolidation in the industrial services sector, driven by private equity backing. Companies like KSS are seeking to build scale through strategic acquisitions to offer a more comprehensive suite of services to their clients.
