St. Louis-based Aegion Corp. has acquired Toncco, an underground utilities company based in Ogden. Aegion is a provider of infrastructure maintenance, rehabilitation and technology-enabled water solutions. Toncco will now operate as part of Insituform, an Aegion portfolio company.
Founded in 2019 by C.J. Nix, Toncco operates as a water utility maintenance and emergency service provider for underground sanitary sewer, storm sewer and potable water pipes across Utah.
“We are very excited about this move,” said Nix. “We couldn’t be happier to be part of Aegion, an impressive innovator in our field that shares our same core values.”
“This is yet another exciting addition for Aegion,” said Rob Tullman, president and CEO of Aegion. “The acquisition of Toncco and its fantastic team continues our geographic expansion in the West with more negotiated and emergency maintenance contracts.”
Toncco employees and facilities will remain in place in Ogden, Tullman said.
