The ACT Group comprises three distinct companies: Applied Conveyor Technology Inc., ACT Dust Control, and Dustco Inc.

The three companies specialize in different aspects of the bulk handling industry and venture into different avenues of environmental control. Formed (as a group) in 1998, the three companies sought to combine administrative, inventory, development and distribution roles into one central location to reduce operating costs and expenses.

Operating under the ACT Group umbrella, each company can specialize in its individual field while utilizing the resources of the other members and partners. Often contracts and applications require the disciplines of all three companies and specialties to offer a complete and viable solution.
