Following its relaunch and brand update at the end of last year, Ironclad Environmental Solutions has announced its acquisition of Adler Tank Rentals—a purchase the company says will expand its service offerings, assets and geographic reach.

Headquartered in Bayton, Texas, Ironclad is a provider of specialty waste management solutions and temporary storage and containment equipment for hazardous and non-hazardous waste. The company serves its customers through a network of over 50 branches with a fleet of over 30,000 specialized rental assets used to store, separate and transport hazardous and nonhazardous waste.

Adler Tank Rentals, Newark, New Jersey, is a provider of liquid and solid containment solutions for the storage of hazardous and nonhazardous waste. Adler rents temporary storage tanks and containers used in energy, environmental, industrial and construction applications across the U.S.

“Ironclad is thrilled to embrace the Adler business as we chart the future growth of our company,” Ironclad CEO Eric John says. “As an organization that focuses on providing turnkey liquid and solid waste containment solutions with a large fleet of high-quality equipment, the acquisition of Adler allows us to expand into new markets and invest more into our fleet. Our priority remains [to deliver] efficient, expedient and compliant waste management solutions for our customers.”

According to Ironclad, the acquisition of Adler will “transform Ironclad into a national environmental solutions business focused on specialty containment for hazardous and non-hazardous waste.” This will be accomplished through its “expansive fleet of rigorously tested equipment,” the company says.

“This company’s growth is fueled by excellence, and the addition of Adler only sets it up for additional success,” says Corwynne Carruthers, managing director of Kinderhook, which acquired Ironclad in October 2022. “As we continue to strengthen the team and add new resources, Eric and his colleagues will continue to excel in the provision of logistics-based environmental solutions for the ongoing waste management needs of our customers.”
