Oak Brook, IL–Maxcess International, a global leader in innovative products and services for automated web handling applications, acquired International Cutting Die Inc. (ICD), manufacturer of precision cutting solid dies and supporting tools based in Melrose Park, IL.
The move provides Maxcess with expanded manufacturing facilities and a highly skilled workforce in the wide web non-woven market, further enhancing the company’s ability to deliver customized solutions and exceptional service and support to its clients.
Additionally, Maxcess global footprint offers several opportunities to expand the ICD product offering globally in solid dies and die stations.
With 50+ years of experience, ICD has developed several exclusive technologies that can be utilized across Maxcess‘ industry platforms to improve customers‘ efficiencies and increase productivity.
“This acquisition marks an exciting new chapter for Maxcess International,” said Odd Joergenrud, CEO. “By integrating ICD’s cutting-edge innovations, including tungsten carbide and powdered metal solid die manufacturing, die station manufacturing and exclusive elastic entrapment technology with our existing RotoMetrics brand global leadership position in narrow web die cutting, nobody can offer as comprehensive or complete a portfolio of solutions for both wide web and narrow web applications.”
“Basically, our customers can cut and convert any material,” Joergenrud noted. “As a result, we are well-positioned to deliver even greater value to our customers in the non-woven sector, tag and label, and beyond.”
Kevin McEnery, GM, ICD commented, “We are thrilled to join forces with Maxcess International. This partnership allows us to leverage Maxcess’s global resources and extensive distribution network, enabling us to reach new markets and deliver superior solutions to our existing and new customers.”
“ICD can also engage with Maxcess R&D resources to leverage software development, automation, guiding and vision solutions to enhance our products with Industry 4.0 technologies and create smarter cutting solutions. We look forward to contributing to Maxcess’s continued success and innovation.”
