During their 53 years in business, Polar Ice Systems grew their presence beyond Indiana into Michigan, Illinois, and Wisconsin. They have met their customers' needs through ice machine leasing, sales, and service across multiple industries. Company president Tim Birkett said of Polar's company slogan: "Ice Systems the Midwest Relies On is more than just a slogan to us, but rather a way of life." That commitment to dependability for their customers made Polar Ice Systems an ideal Easy Ice acquisition.

Since its inception in 2009, Easy Ice has achieved notable expansion through a combination of organic growth and strategic acquisitions achieved through the intentional pursuit of ice machine leasing companies with similar standards of excellence, culture, and organizational directives. This alignment ensures both operational continuity and a consistent customer experience for the staff and customers of companies like Polar Ice Systems during the transition period.
