Burton Mill Solutions announced its acquisition of Industrial Cutting Tools (ICT) of Quitman, Ga. ICT specializes in reconditioning cutting tools for sawmill, chip, and pellet operations throughout the Southeastern U.S. The acquisition significantly expands Burton’s geographic footprint and enhances its technical capabilities, enabling better service to primary wood producers who outsource the reconditioning of their circle and band saws and machine knives. 

Chuck Wert, Senior Vice President of Burton, expresses enthusiasm for the acquisition, “We are thrilled to join forces with ICT. Our teams share a dedication to innovation and excellence, and together we will set new standards in the industry.”

Walter Cowart, General Manager of ICT, will remain with ICT’s prior owner, The Langdale Co., while longtime employee Scott Mathis has agreed to take on the role of Operations Manager.

ICT was originally established in 1978 as an offshoot of the Langdale Co., but has since expanded and diversified to become a regional leader in cutting solutions.
