About Us
Westmor Industries, formerly known as Kleespie Tank and Petroleum Equipment, was founded in 1972 in Morris, Minnesota by Bob Kleespie and his brothers Larry, Bruce and Bill. Over the years the company grew and diversified, manufacturing petroleum and liquid handling equipment for the refined fuels and ethanol industries. Kleespie Tank was reorganized in 2001 and became Westmor Industries. In 2008, the company was acquired by Superior Industries, a manufacturer of material handling equipment also headquartered in Morris. The Superior/Westmor match has been a great one, and Superior has continued to invest in Westmor’s production facilities. Last year Westmor added 7,500 square feet to our tank shop facility, and a new welding school housed in a separate building on the Westmor campus was opened to provide employees with beginning and advanced welding instruction.
Today Westmor manufactures tanks, vessels and fluid-handling equipment for the refined fuel, LP, aviation and CO2 industries. From conception and design by Westmor’s engineering team through manufacturing and installation in the field, Westmor builds state-of-the-art fueling systems, tanks, vessels and trucks for customers around the world. Westmor’s aviation department is proud to have manufactured two aircraft refuelers used to fuel the U.S. President’s helicopters.
Westmor strives to be on the cutting edge of the industries we service. Whether we are manufacturing fueling systems for the US military, service stations, bulk fueling plants, CO2 transports or LP bobtails, Westmor continues to refine its manufacturing and quality control processes to stay ahead of our customers’ needs.
At Westmor, honesty and integrity are the core values we promote to help us develop long term mutually-profitable relationships with our customers and vendors. We take the long view of things at Westmor and seek to build associations that will last by exceeding our customers’ expectations with our products and our customer service and support.
The Superior Industries Westmor Division currently employs more than 150 people at our facilities in Morris, Minnesota. We also have representatives and technicians in Iowa, Wisconsin, North Dakota and South Dakota to better serve our customers in those areas. Through the good economic times and the not-so-good, our core values of honesty, integrity and our commitment to employee development have stood us well, and we expect to continue to grow and prosper well into the future.
