CLEVELAND, Aug. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Parker Hannifin Corporation (NYSE: PH), the global leader in motion and control technologies, today announced it has completed its previously announced acquisition of Filtration Group Corporation.
“The close of this transaction marks another milestone in our ongoing portfolio transformation, and we welcome our new team members to Parker,” said Jenny Parmentier, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Strategically, the combination of our businesses creates a powerhouse offering of complementary filtration technologies and aftermarket presence that we believe strengthens our ability to serve customers globally.

Filtration Group Corporation adds to Parker’s portfolio of highly engineered products and leverages deep technical and application knowledge to serve key growth markets, including life sciences, HVAC/R, and in-plant and industrial.
