These acquisitions have enabled Mueller to broaden its product line with complementary products. Offering the widest selection of products and the most production capability is just the beginning of Mueller's commitment to customers. What pulls it all together is the dedication to superior customer service. It starts with a seasoned sales force of factory sales representatives and agents that receive extensive training in Mueller's own university type facility. An integrated customer service facility allows the same service representative to support the customer from order entry through order fulfillment.
