About Us
COMPANY HISTORY
James C. Marean and Donald J. Hayes founded
Aurora Equipment in 1978 and changed the name to Fluid Kinetics,
Inc. in March of 1981. The focus of the business then and
now, is to perform as manufacturer's representatives of quality
water and wastewater equipment.
In the beginning, the business was operated
out of the home of Jim Marean where he grew the company
based on two product lines. After several years of rapid
growth, it become apparent that additional personnel and
a parts and service department were needed. It was at this
time that the company moved its headquarters to its current
location at 251 Thorn Avenue in Orchard Park, NY. Once in
the new facility, the company produced new product lines,
enhanced its sales capabilities, added a parts manager, and
receptionist.
The ongoing growth of the business eventually
led to the addition of satellite sales offices based throughout
New York State. Those offices, located in the Rochester,
Syracuse and Albany areas, have become an essential part
of the Fluid Kinetics operation.
In June of 2001, two employees of the company
purchased the business from James Marean and Donald Hayes,
who wished to retire. Today the companys new owners are
Douglas J. Hayes and Robert S. Glace Jr.
Fluid Kinetics, Inc. has endured, while
others have faded away. Product lines, new owners, and equipment
changes had undergone growing pains, yet the main philosophy
and business practices of Fluid Kinetics, Inc., remained
in tact. Our dedication to customer service and the company's
steadfast belief that fair treatment to customers was necessary
to the companys survival, which brings Fluid Kinetics, Inc.
forward to today. The companys continued interest in our
customer's needs, and by placing their necessities first,
Fluid Kinetics, Inc. focus, remains on task.
