HOUSTON, March 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — In a move to protect its CMS technology patents and bring singular focus to its VeriCure® Cured-In-Place Pipe Curing Monitoring System, Vortex Technology Group, LLC, a business entity of the Vortex Companies’ Products Division, announced today that it has acquired Zia Systems, LLC, an integrated system solutions provider of CMS (Curing Monitoring System) and CiPPi temperature monitoring technology for Cured-In-Place Pipe trenchless rehabilitation applications. With this latest deal, the Vortex Technology Group will move forward with consolidating and rebranding CMS and CiPPi offerings under the single brand name of VeriCure.
Columbus, OH based Zia Systems Co-Founders, Gary Rapp and Larry Rapp, will be working with Vortex Technology Group to ensure a smooth transition of its CIPP monitoring systems and existing customers. Vortex Technology Group, who recently acquired the patented CMS intellectual property and the VeriCure trademark, will now be able to stabilize the market, level-set pricing and standardize QA/QC measures. It will also focus on expanding product field support and educating the trenchless infrastructure rehabilitation engineering community on the benefits of monitoring Cured-In-Place Pipe (CIPP) applications.
VeriCure, which is currently patented in 19 countries, captures and records a thermal temperature reading, incrementally, along the entire length of a CIPP liner. This information significantly improves the efficiency and quality of the installation, while lowering overall costs. For questions regarding the Zia Systems acquisition, or for more information about VeriCure, please contact Andrew Gonnella, President of Vortex Products, at 1-855-WHYDIG1.
