Acheson, AB – SMS Equipment, a coast-to-coast equipment partner for leading-edge equipment and support solutions, announced that the demolition of existing structures took place in late March to expand operational capacity.

The new facility location is 4088 and 4011 Highway 101 West, Timmins, Ontario. It will be home to a new conventional steel constructed building with approximately 13,000 sq ft of office and roughly 23,000 sq ft of shop area. 

The shop will feature:

• five service bays with two bridge cranes
• one wash bay
• two heavy-duty welding bays with two bridge cranes
• an exterior runway

This unique facility is the first SMS Equipment building to share mining, welding, and construction services from one location, increasing production capacity, full-service support, and cross-industry service from a strategic location. Continued growth in all sectors from mining, heavy construction, road construction, and light construction fuels the opportunity for the new facility. 

A Komatsu PC350LC-8 digs into a structure to signify a new beginning for a state-of-the-art building to support mining and construction operations from Timmins, ON.

“The new facility will enable us to meet the rapidly growing demand for our products and better serve our customers coast to coast.” “SMS Equipment operates in 42 locations across Canada and we have built strong relationships in every city and town that we call home.”
