Howard Ice purchased Acklin Stamping in June 1999, an acquisition considered the culmination of a lifelong dream. Along with a strong desire to own his own company, Howard wanted to build and manage a business and employee team in an entirely new way. He sought employees who wanted to come to work every day, who wanted to work hard and contribute to the success of an organization.
The successful turnaround of Acklin Stamping earned Howard the Ernst & Young Northwest Ohio Entrepreneur of the Year award in 2001. Building upon that successful base, he has led Ice Industries' through a sustained period of growth.
Howard has always lived by two guiding principles: treat others as you would like to be treated and don’t put yourself above any other. His greatest assets are his ability to motivate and inspire his employees to perform above their expectations.

Howard is the driver of our strategies for our markets, customers and company and the foundation of our belief that we will succeed by focusing on quality, delivery and customer service.
