PGW, a portfolio company of One Equity Partners, has acquired Windshield Surgeons, a Canadian automotive glass business. The deal strengthens PGW's position in the North American automotive replacement glass market, though financial terms remain undisclosed. PGW operates more than 160 branches across the US and Canada, distributing automotive replacement glass, specialty parts, and business technology solutions.

Todd Fencak serves as CEO of the Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania-based company. The acquisition adds to PGW's extensive distribution network, which includes installation, calibration, and paint services. Windshield Surgeons brings additional automotive glass expertise to the combined entity, expanding geographic reach in the Canadian market.

This consolidation reflects broader trends in the automotive aftermarket sector, where distributors seek scale advantages amid rising vehicle complexity. The move positions One Equity Partners-backed PGW to compete more effectively against larger automotive parts distributors. Automotive glass replacement demand has grown alongside advanced driver assistance systems requiring precise calibration.

Strategic acquisitions like this allow private equity-backed companies to build comprehensive service offerings while achieving operational synergies. The deal underscores continued investor confidence in automotive aftermarket consolidation opportunities.
