MAXIMETAL

Commercial Emergency Equipment is an exclusive distributor for Canadian-based MAXIMETAL, a specialist in custom fire apparatus and optimized intervention vehicles since 1983. Headquartered in Saint-Georges, Quebec, Maximetal is known for innovation, application-specific design, and a quality-driven manufacturing culture supported by ISO certification and rigorous continuous-improvement processes. The company’s team includes more than 85 skilled employees, with many part-time and volunteer firefighters contributing frontline insight to vehicle design, safety, and usability.

Maximetal emphasizes a high-touch, dealer-and-customer-first build experience from project development through delivery and after-sales support. Founded by Claude Gendron, Maximetal expanded across Canada and into export contracts while investing heavily in engineering and production capacity, including specialized builds for industrial and oil-field firefighting applications. Maximetal also entered an exclusive collaboration building trucks alongside Pierce Manufacturing, and in 2022 became part of the Oshkosh Corporation, continuing a mission focused on building vehicles that stand out for quality and ingenuity.z
