The Will-Burt Company, designer, manufacturer and seller of mobile telescoping mast, tower, and integrated trailer systems, has announced the acquisition of Clark Masts Systems, LTD. Clark is known globally for their field and vehicle deployed telescopic pneumatic mast systems.

“We are pleased to add the high-performance Clark Mast range of mobile pneumatic telescopic mast products to the Will-Burt portfolio,” stated Richard Lewin, CEO and President of The Will-Burt Company. “The Clark Mast brand is well-known around the world for delivering high-quality products backed by exemplary service. The Will-Burt and Clark organizations have great mutual respect for one another and similar cultural beliefs that we expect will deliver increased value to our customers.”

Clark Masts, first introduced in 1954 by Alec Clark, are lightweight, quick-erecting field masts that are highly versatile with commercial and defense variations.
