He added, “We saw great similarities in our business models and synergies with Paramount’s products and brands and are very proud to have a company with such a rich legacy join us.”
“We are equally excited to join the PIP Global family,” stated Tim Bird, CEO of Paramount. “We had been looking for the right partner to continue the dream of our father, the late Rob Bird.” Will Bird, Director of Operations, added, “We found that Joe Milot built PIP® on similar principles and values that our father outlined when he started Paramount.” Tim and Will Bird will continue leading the Paramount team in the Oceania Region.
Paramount is another example of PIP's successful acquisition strategy and strengthens its portfolio of products which now includes the following brands: PRO CHOICE Safety Gear, LINQ Height Safety, PRATT Environmental and Site Safety Systems, MEDIQ First Aid, THORZT Hydration Products, BISON Safety and Footwear and WORKIT Workwear.
