Revolutionizing Concrete Cutting Technology

ICS is synonymous with innovation. In 1990, the company revolutionized the concrete cutting industry with the introduction of Diamond Chain Technology™. This groundbreaking technology allows professionals to cut through the toughest materials, including concrete and pipe, with unmatched precision. Over the years, ICS has continued to evolve its technology, adding features like SealPro and Seal Pro Advanced anti-stretch technologies that significantly reduce chain stretch, resulting in less time spent tensioning and more time cutting efficiently.

Today, ICS remains committed to pushing the boundaries of concrete cutting technology, developing tools that improve job site safety, enhance productivity, and ensure that every cut is made with the highest level of accuracy.
