Haltec Corporation Transforms Tax Compliance and Accelerates National Expansion with Avalara

DURHAM, N.C., Aug. 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Avalara, Inc., a leader in modern tax compliance automation, today announced that Haltec Corporation, a global innovator in tire valve systems and torque technology, has successfully modernized its tax operations using Avalara's suite of compliance solutions.

Since its founding in 1970, Haltec has evolved from a small family-run operation into a 250-employee manufacturing leader, serving customers in more than 130 countries. As its business grew across 45 U.S. states, Haltec encountered rising complexity in sales tax compliance—facing shifting state regulations, fluctuating tax rates, and mounting exemption certificate requirements.

To meet these challenges and support its nationwide growth, Haltec implemented Avalara AvaTax, Avalara Returns, and Avalara Exemption Certificate Management, integrating with Haltec's long-time ERP partner SYSPRO. The impact was immediate: tax tasks that once consumed three weeks are now completed in just hours. The company now saves hundreds of hours annually, and has avoided the need to hire two additional full-time employees.

"Before Avalara, we were spending two to three weeks every month on tax returns and certificate tracking. It was time-consuming and error prone," said Brooks Bezon, CFO at Haltec Corporation. "Now, returns that used to take me three weeks are done in a few hours. Customers simply upload certificates after a reminder, and they trust they're being billed accurately."

With Avalara in place, Haltec has reclaimed vital time and resources, enabling its leadership to focus on product innovation, global partnerships, and continued expansion. Avalara's automated tools help ensure Haltec remains agile, compliant, and ready for the next phase of growth.

"Working with Haltec Corporation has been an incredible customer journey," said Liz Armbruester, EVP, Customer and Compliance Operations at Avalara. "Their ability to save hundreds of hours annually and reduce the strain of manual tax and compliance tasks on staff is a testament to the power of automation. We're proud to be a part of their growth story."
