C.I. Thornburg Company began in 1931 as pipe, valve, and fitting experts. In 1958, the Morrison family purchased the company with the vision to provide contractors and municipalities everything they need to take water from the source and return it back to the source.

Today in 2O2O we are proud to fulfill all those needs— from chemicals, supplies, and upgrades, to design expertise, smart technology, Sensus Metrology, SCADA, repairs and even investing in customer infrastructure at no cost to them.

After 60 years of being driven to develop new solutions that improve our customers’ businesses and their DECPE bottom lines, we thought it was time to reintroduce ODS ourselves, beginning with a renaming of C.I. Thornburg. NP C Our new name, CITCO WATER, reflects our growth, experience, support and continued investment in the FA water and wastewater industry. TRCS

As CITCO WATER we will continue the same dedication to quality, integrity, and innovation, and the same EAYS commitment to our customers, our community, T our industry and our environment.
