Delta Power Equipment buys Delta from Stanley

Delta Power Equipment Corp. announced today that its deal to purchase the DELTA brand of woodworking equipment and machinery from Stanley Black & Decker closed Feb. 4, as expected. 

Delta also announced Alicia Hicks has been named marketing manager for the organization. Additional recruiting is under way.

A wholly owned subsidiary of Chang Type Industrial Co., a Taiwan-based manufacturing company, Delta Power Equipment Corp. is based in Anderson, S.C. This new location will continue the Made in the USA tradition of designing, manufacturing and marketing Unisaw radial arm saws and Biesemeyer accessories. 

“We are right on track with our transition plan and expect to begin moving machinery and equipment from the Jackson, Tenn., location very soon,” said Bryan Whiffen, president and CEO. 

The Anderson facility is expected to be fully operational in April.
