The story of ICS® is a narrative of breaking through the hardest barriers, a journey backed by over 35 years of industrydefining innovation. It started in 1990 with a singular, revolutionary breakthrough: the introduction of Diamond Chain Technology™. Before ICS, cutting concrete and ductile iron pipe was often a slow, bruteforce endeavor. They changed the game by engineering the world's first diamond chain for concrete, giving professionals the power to slice through the toughest materials on earth with unmatched precision.

    At the very heart of their identity is a commitment to keeping professionals cutting rather than fixing. ICS distinguishes itself by constantly pushing the boundaries of what a blade or chain can endure. They engineered advanced solutions like SealPro and Seal Pro Advanced antistretch technologies to drastically reduce chain stretch, ensuring that operators spend less time tensioning their equipment and more time working efficiently. Their philosophy is simple: tools shouldn't just get the job done; they must make the job safer, faster, and exponentially more precise.

    This is a story of assembling the ultimate arsenal for the concrete professional. What began in Portland, Oregon, with their iconic ICS® Diamond Chains and the revolutionary PowerGrit pipe cutting chain, has expanded into a formidable family of trusted, toptier brands designed to tackle every aspect of a job site:

 Merit® Floor Saws: Handbuilt to order in the U.S.A., these advanced flat saws are crafted for professionals, by professionals, utilizing the highest quality materials.

 Pentruder® Wall and Wire Saws: As the exclusive distributor in the Americas, ICS provides these goldstandard tools, known globally for their extreme power, precision, and longevity.

 CARDI Core Drills and Handsaws: Through strategic partnership, they offer revolutionary drilling and cutting solutions powered by Diamond PulseTech micropercussion technology to maximize performance.

    This is a story of global support anchored by elite expertise. While their engineering roots run deep in the Pacific Northwest, their reach is worldwide. With a European hub in Belgium and a massive network of authorized dealers, factorytrained personnel, and service centers spanning over 70 countries, ICS ensures that their equipment is backed by an unwavering support system. When you invest in their tools, you aren't just buying hardware; you are gaining a global service network dedicated to minimizing your downtime.

    Today, the story of ICS® is one of the undisputed vanguard in concrete cutting. It is a promise that whether you are opening a concrete wall with a Pentruder saw or cutting ductile iron pipe in a muddy trench with PowerGrit, you are armed with equipment engineered to work exactly as hard as you do.
