This acquisition enhances Burton’s technical capabilities and strengthens their ability to provide exceptional service to primary wood producers. By integrating Southern Saw & Wood’s expertise into Burton’s network, Burton has expanded its comprehensive cutting tool reconditioning services and reinforces a commitment to new product and process development.
