Today is a HUGE day for the Tom Beard Company and P&L Specialties!
We are thrilled to announce our merger with Pellenc America.
This strategic alignment unifies three of the most trusted names in wine production technology, creating a single, comprehensive source for premium winery equipment. By bringing P&L Specialties and Tom Beard Company under the Pellenc America umbrella, the combined organization will offer unparalleled solutions across every stage of the winemaking process. Wineries will now benefit from a streamlined network of design, sales, parts, and technical and installation services, giving customers a true one-stop shop for their equipment needs, from the vineyard to the cellar.
This union builds on a long-standing collaborative relationship between the three companies. Operating together will accelerate technical innovation while strengthening nationwide customer support. Wineries can continue to rely on the same high-quality, artisan-level manufacturing and sustainable engineering they have trusted for decades.
The team at P&L Specialties and Tom Beard Company remain unchanged as does our contact information and location.
