APCO Holdings continued to grow on Wednesday, announcing the acquisition of Crystal Fusion Technologies, which is a provider of automotive glass protection solutions.

The provider and administrator F&I products and home to the EasyCare and GWC Warranty brands said this strategic acquisition marks a significant milestone for APCO as it expands its portfolio and strengthens its position in the automotive aftermarket industry.

Executives highlighted Crystal Fusion Technologies is recognized for its technology and products designed to enhance the durability and performance of automotive glass surfaces.

With a commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction, APCO said Crystal Fusion has built a strong reputation among consumers and industry professionals alike since its inception in 2007.

Crystal Fusion is distributed through more than 1,000 auto, RV and boat dealers, as well as professional detailers and via e-commerce partners through its GlassParency brand.

“We are thrilled to welcome Crystal Fusion to the APCO family,” APCO chief executive officer Tony Wanderon said in a news release. “This acquisition represents an exciting opportunity to leverage the expertise and capabilities of both companies to deliver even greater value to our customers.

“Together, we will continue to drive innovation and position us as the leader in automotive protection solutions,” Wanderon continued.

As part of the acquisition, APCO said will retain key personnel and operations of Crystal Fusion Technologies, ensuring a seamless transition for customers and partners.

Following the close of the transaction, founder Ray Doran will transition and Gary LoCicero, president of Crystal Fusion Technologies, will continue to lead company operations, according to the news release.

“When I decided to sell my business, finding a partner who values our employees, distributors, and dealers as much as I do was essential. With this focus, Crystal Fusion is well-positioned to prosper under new ownership,” Doran said.

LoCicero added, “I’m excited to take the reins and lead Crystal Fusion into its next chapter alongside the APCO team. With its legacy of growth and innovation, APCO is the right partner to shepherd the company into a new era.”

The current era for APCO has been an active one. The company began 2023 by acquiring National Auto Care, merging it into the EasyCare brand last month.
