General Acrylics’ operations and executive leadership, including Jonnie Deremo, will continue post-transaction and partner with AstroTurf to further support rapid growth.

Philip Snider, Chief Operating Officer of AstroTurf, said, “We are thrilled to acquire General Acrylics and partner with Jonnie. Throughout his nearly four decades of experience, Jonnie and his team have provided countless satisfied customers with high-quality installations. The acquisition expands AstroTurf’s presence in the Southwest, with General Acrylics now serving as our official construction arm in Arizona. Together, we will leverage the team’s expertise and relationships to deliver the highest-quality sports surfacing solutions to even more customers in the region.”

Jonnie Deremo, Owner and President of General Acrylics, said, “It is an honor for the business that I purchased nearly four decades ago to be acquired by the legendary AstroTurf® brand. With AstroTurf’s national resources supporting General Acrylics’ local expertise, I am excited to pursue incredible opportunities for growth and expansion.”
