Heritage-Crystal Clean expands with Envirosafe acquisition

Heritage-Crystal Clean, Inc., a prominent player in parts cleaning, waste management, and environmental services, announced the acquisition of Envirosafe Services of Ohio, Inc., headquartered in Oregon, Ohio, U.S.A. This strategic move significantly bolsters Crystal Clean’s service capabilities and infrastructure.

Heritage-Crystal Clean, Inc. provides a wide range of environmental and industrial services, catering to various sectors including vehicle maintenance, manufacturing, utilities, and governmental entities. Their services encompass parts cleaning, waste management, used oil collection and re-refining, emergency response, and antifreeze recycling, among others.

The acquisition integrates Envirosafe’s fully permitted hazardous waste treatment, storage, and disposal facility into Crystal Clean’s network.
