OHIO-based MAC Trailer Mfg. Inc. continues to expand the manufacturing footprint for its wide range of products. In the latest example, the MAC Liquid Tank Trailer division acquired the manufacturing assets of Burch Tank & Truck in Mt. Pleasant, MI, in May and soon began manufacturing its stainless-steel line of cargo tanks under the MAC LTT Stainless brand.
The first unit rolled off the Mt. Pleasant line in late June.
Burch Tank & Truck was founded in 1990 as a custom tank trailer manufacturer serving the agricultural, chemical, oilfield, aviation, and petroleum sectors, with a focus on 3A sanitary transports. In late 2018, Burch added a 20-foot fiber laser cutter, billed as one of the largest in the Midwest at the time, to the 60,000-square-foot manufacturing facility. About the same time, Burch also opened at new parts store on the campus.
Simply, the new location made for an ideal acquisition and integration into the MAC family.
Burch Tank & Truck will continue to operate their repair shop and parts sales facility in Mt. Pleasant and will become a full-service dealer for the MAC LTT Stainless Division product line.
