Intervale Capital, LLC (“Intervale”) has announced the sale of TorcSill Foundations, LLC (“TorcSill” or the “Company”), a portfolio company of Intervale Fund III, to a newly formed entity owned primarily by White Deer Energy (“White Deer”). Financial terms of the transaction have not been disclosed.

TorcSill is a leading provider of engineered helical pile and anchor foundation solutions across the energy, industrial, and power end markets. TorcSill’s turnkey product and service package includes in-house research and development, design, manufacturing, installation and installation consulting services.

Tim Swift, TorcSill’s Chief Executive Officer, will continue to oversee the business under new ownership. Swift commented, “It has been a pleasure to work with Intervale Capital. They have been an excellent partner as TorcSill has expanded over the past several years. The Intervale team has provided valuable strategic and financial guidance that leaves us well positioned as we move into our next phase of growth. I am excited for the next chapter under White Deer’s stewardship.”  

Jason Turowsky, Partner at Intervale Capital, commented, “We are proud to have partnered with Tim and the entire TorcSill team. During Intervale’s ownership, the Company has experienced rapid growth as its core helical pile foundation technology continues to displace traditional deep foundation solutions, such as concrete. We look forward to watching this technology continue to take market share.”

We look forward to partnering with the Company in the next phase of its growth.”
