CHICAGO, IL – Brook Park Holdings, LLC, (“BPH”), a U.S.-based private equity firm announced today that it had sold Crowd Control Warehouse (“CCW”) to Brimar Industries, a Blue Point Capital Partners portfolio company.

Brimar Industries is a vertically integrated provider of safety signs, pipe markers, valve tags, and parking and traffic signs. Brimar’s mature operations including a strong digital presence will guarantee a best-in-class customer experience in the combined company. Blue Point’s strategic guidance and shared resources add a layer of oversight to maximize the unique value in both firms.

CCW is the industry leading distributor of crowd control and safety barriers. The company was a family owned and managed business. Andrew Palchak led the company’s growth since 2017 as the CCW CEO, and Dan Palchak and Mark Palchak (Managing Members of BPH) served on the Board of CCW.

“We are thrilled to welcome the CCW team and customers into the Brimar family,” said Brimar COO Michael Schoenfeld. “The strengths of both organizations combined will be an incredible value-add to our collective customers, and we look forward to working together to achieve our shared growth objectives.”

“CCW has established itself as a true innovator and digital disruptor in the crowd control and safety barrier sector. This investment serves as an excellent first step in the M&A expansion strategy we have planned for Brimar as a leading safety products platform,” said Blue Point Principal Rick Soukup. “In addition to M&A, the Blue Point team looks forward to leveraging our Data & Digital and Supply Chain teams to help expand the business.”

“Blue Point and Brimar’s combined value-add capabilities made our choice extremely simple,” said Mark Palchak. “We look forward to building on our strategic growth initiatives and expanding CCW’s e-commerce platform with the additional support, resources and expertise of the Blue Point and Brimar teams.”
