About us
AC Horn Manufacturing - BUILT TO LAST It all started in a modest garage in Texas in 1907. Yet it wasn’t until 1946, when a young A.C. “Ace” Horn took over his father’s small sheet metal operation, that the company we know today began to take shape. Ace didn’t know what would become of his new enterprise, but he did know how he wanted things done. He believed that a business, like any person, was only as good as its word. So, he set out to build a company he could be proud of––one that offered genuine quality, delivered on its promises and stood by its work. All these years later, Horn has evolved into a worldwide leader in processing equipment for the snack food industry. There’s no denying times have changed, but Ace’s guiding principles are as relevant today as ever. Savvy food processors have come to know Horn for integrity in everything we do. Unsurprisingly, it starts with the equipment we build. Each piece is made with the kind of good, honest craftsmanship that’s just not found in competitive products. We use only the very best parts, the most carefully thought out design, and we never take shortcuts. It’s what makes our equipment the most reliable––and trusted––in the industry. Today, the Horn product line features best-in-class nut roasters and popcorn poppers, plus top-quality equipment for milling, peanut blanching and the packaging room. We offer capabilities to customize certain machines and boast a well-respected, highly efficient job shop center. It all combines to make Horn an invaluable partner for snack food producers around the globe. Smaller manufacturers depend on us. Some of the world’s largest corporations do too. It’s safe to say Ace would be proud of what his company has become. One built on integrity whose values always shine through. We’ll keep striving to craft the best machinery around, following through on our commitment to our customers, and going above and beyond to earn their trust.

It is with great pride that I announce a historic achievement for my family: After 117 years and four generations of continuous ownership by the Horn family, we have sold AC Horn. Our company will become part of Probat, a German firm and the global leader in coffee roasting equipment. Probat and AC Horn are a natural fit. Founded in 1868, Probat is a family-owned business, just like AC Horn. You’ve probably encountered Probat without even knowing it; three out of every four cups of coffee consumed in the world are brewed with beans roasted on Probat roasters. Based in Emmerich, Germany and with a U.S. headquarters in Chicago, Probat is now expanding its non-coffee division. AC Horn, a global leader in nut roasting, will make an excellent complement to Probat’s existing product line. Probat understands the uniqueness of the food and beverage industry, as well as the nuance of running a family-owned firm like ours. I’m confident that Probat’s management understands the brand equity and respect the Horn name commands. AC Horn is in good hands. The decision to sell was not an easy one; in consideration of many factors, my mom, sisters and I agreed that the best thing for AC Horn was to sell to a larger company who can take our brand to the next level. Selling this business is my family’s greatest accomplishment, and I couldn’t be more proud. My sisters and mother share that sentiment. Today is the start of a new phase, and the logical next step to further grow the business into a new era, as my father, grandfather, and great grandfather did in their respective eras of ownership. I will remain in my role with the new position title of General Manager, a title and resp
PROBAT accelerates strategic development with acquisition of AC Horn Manufacturing Press Release: Emmerich, Germany, February 29, 2024: PROBAT announces the acquisition of AC Horn Manufacturing, a world-class producer of premium food processing equipment, based in Texas, USA. With this strategic investment, the global market and technology leader in coffee roasting plant and machinery strengthens its competitive advantage through new technological capabilities and synergies to further penetrate the global food market. Originally a small sheet metal business founded in 1907, AC Horn has developed into a leading global supplier of food processing equipment. PROBAT's investment in this acquisition not only complements its existing products and services, particularly for nut and snack processing, but also increases the efficiency of its own production processes through greater vertical integration. Furthermore, AC Horn and PROBAT share an unrivalled commitment to their customers that sets both companies apart in their respective industries. “PROBAT and AC Horn are two family-owned companies that have more in common than separates them. Our combined expertise will strengthen both companies to the benefit of our customers and all stakeholders. I am very pleased that Michael Horn has decided to remain at the helm in Dallas and look forward to a shared future,” says PROBAT CEO Wim Abbing after the acquisition. PROBAT is strategically focused on continuing to invest in its growing business and sees the acquisition of AC Horn as a great opportunity to build on a complementary portfolio that will allow the company to expand its product offering. By adding new resources and building larger and stronger teams of experts with a wide range of skills, PROBAT also underpins its mission to offer its customers individual and future-proof solutions. Michael Horn, President & CEO of AC Horn Manufacturing, is also looking forward to a shared future with PROBAT: “I am incredibly excited and proud for AC Horn to join PROBAT. My team and I have worked hard to build a strong brand and we are eager to take it to the next level in this new journey. PROBAT is a great company with many cultural similarities to AC Horn. It is the right home for the company that my family has built over the last 117 years. I look forward to the new opportunity and cannot wait to get to work!” As a member of the PROBAT Group, AC Horn will be well positioned to deliver the value and quality that its customers have come to expect - and beyond.
