Material Handler

Spartan Tool has been manufacturing sewer and drain cleaning equipment for professional users since 1943.  At Spartan Tool, we pride ourselves on producing innovative plumbing machine tools and other products that solve the problems of the drain cleaning market. We focus on safe operation, customer service, and equipment that pays back dividends over years - even decades - of operation. Assembled at our manufacturing plant in Niles, Michigan, Spartan products are engineered for extraordinary durability, reliability, and ease of use. Spartan Tool is part of the Industrial Technologies Group and wholly owned by The Heico Companies, LLC.

Heico has a history of success. Since its founding over 40 years ago The Heico Companies has grown from a single business to over 80 separate companies through a strategic acquisition policy, and by reinvesting its earnings into internal growth and new prospects. Historically talented at restoring distressed companies, Heico now strategically targets acquisitions that will complement its ever-growing portfolio of companies in manufacturing, construction, and industrial services.

These four core operations are organized into groups: Metal Processing Group, Construction Solutions Group, Applied Solutions Group, and Industrial Technologies Group. Once acquired, new Heico companies are assigned to a group and run on a stand-alone basis, allowing for great independence as well as the opportunity to share knowledge about markets, production processes, and management practices across other Heico groups and companies. Each Group has its own corporate team.

 Heico continues to seek out new opportunities and maintain its standard of success. The Heico Companies has remained a privately held company since its creation and maintains a majority ownership in each of its operations, which generates more than $3.3 billion dollars in revenues. Many of our businesses are certified Woman-owned Business Enterprises (WBE).
