History

Rencor Controls was founded in 1985 by Corey Simpson and Pat Herlihy; former regional managers for Fisher Controls’ Posi-Seal Division. Corey and Pat felt there was a need for high-quality, quickly-delivered Control and Automated Valves in the New England area. Most of the customers they spoke with felt the products they purchased were good, however, they lacked the required response time (i.e. fast delivery to meet crucial schedule requirements), and of course, affordable pricing.

With this in mind, Rencor began the search to represent control valve companies (Samson, Cashco, Velan, etc.) that had the same philosophy, accordingly believing that the customer’s needs came first! The first product line that Rencor picked up was the Samson Control Valve line. This was a worldwide company that started to expand its operations in North America. Furthermore, they were driven by the same conviction to the customer’s concerns and needs as Rencor.

Since that time, Rencor Controls grew from 2 dedicated men to 10+ employees and more than $8,000,000 in sales in 2019. Then, in March 2020, Rencor became a part of Ferguson Industrial, subsequently bringing with them the expertise of valve automation. In addition, they brought their customer base from the Northeast. Now, as part of a much larger team, Rencor has become undeniably stronger.

Still operating under the name Rencor Controls, they still stand by the firm customer-first philosophy as well as continue to inventory and stock all of the products they represent.
