RMH Systems Acquires Top Shelf Integrated Solutions, Expanding Material Handling Capabilities in Ohio

WAUKEE, Iowa--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RMH Systems (RMH), a leading provider of turnkey automation, material handling, packaging, and industrial scale solutions, has acquired Top Shelf Integrated Solutions (Top Shelf), a respected material handling integrator based in Columbus, OH. The acquisition marks RMH's second add-on since partnering with Rotunda Capital Partners in February 2025.

The acquisition deepens RMH's material handling capabilities, establishes a new regional footprint in central Ohio, and further strengthens its position as a premier end-to-end material handling and automation solutions provider. Top Shelf brings deep experience designing intelligent, custom material handling systems for manufacturers, warehouses, and distribution centers. In turn, Top Shelf's customers now gain access to RMH's growing suite of packaging and robotics capabilities, rounding out the solution set available across both companies' client bases.

With this second acquisition, RMH continues to execute its strategy of pairing strong regional integrators with its existing platform of diverse capabilities, engineering resources, technology, and MRO services. RMH and Top Shelf share a common foundation of engineering excellence, customer-first service, and inventive problem-solving.

"Top Shelf is exactly the kind of team we look for as we build out the RMH platform," said Ryan Howard, President of RMH. "Their material handling expertise and culture are a strong fit, and Ohio is a critical industrial market for us to establish a presence in. Tim has built something special, and this is another important step in RMH's strategic growth as we expand our footprint and broaden what we can offer customers nationwide."

Top Shelf founder Tim Neroni will remain onboard to lead the Ohio operation and continue supporting Top Shelf's customer base. With more than 30 years in the material handling industry, Neroni will now be able to draw on RMH's expanded capabilities to deliver an even broader range of solutions to his team's clients.

"Top Shelf's mission has always been to serve as a trusted material handling partner, from concept to completion," said Neroni. "Joining RMH means we can keep that promise while offering our clients even more: robotics, packaging, and scale solutions alongside what we already do best. RMH and Top Shelf share the same DNA when it comes to culture and customer commitment, and that alignment is what makes this partnership so exciting."

With two acquisitions now under its belt since partnering with Rotunda, RMH Systems continues to seek acquisitions with companies that further support its strategy of building a national, end-to-end material handling and solutions provider, including those with robotics, conveyor, packaging, industrial scale, overhead crane, and other material handling capabilities throughout North America.
