Company History

ICP Industries was formed by Archie Reeves in 1966 after changing business names
multiple times in the 1960's since his original purchase in 1963. Colonel Archie Reeves
purchased the plant in 1963 after the previous owner lost his contract with the aircraft
industry and moved the company strategy to chrome plate the power cylinders for the
railroad engines. In 1990 Colonel Archie Reeves passed away and Gary Smith became
president. Under Gary's leadership ICP Industries has moved to power cylinders for
natural gas combustible engines.
