Bolzoni's new Mississauga facility.

Bolzoni Auramo Canada has opened a new sales, warehouse and service facility in Mississauga near Toronto.

The new facility on Pantera Drive aims to "increase the level of service to our Canadian customers", says managing director Gilles Ganassa.

"Besides the activities connected to the sales of Bolzoni Auramo forklift attachments and forks, from the Greater Toronto Area office and warehouse we will guarantee our customers a well-equipped stock of attachments and forks, spare parts supplies, rental, repairs and refurbishing." Service will be offered in-house and at customers' sites.

Founded in 1992 in Dollard-des-Ormeaux, Quebec, Bolzoni Auramo Canada offers a wide range of paper roll clamps, bale clamps and other specialised products for paper handling.

Bolzoni works with major forklift distributors to provide solutions for many industries, including pulp and paper, lumber, recycling, plastics, metals, food and beverages, fisheries, pharmaceuticals, logistics and general handling. Its products include parallel clamps, multiple pallet handlers, rotators and many other attachments.

Ganassa notes that the new facility will ensure that "a local stock of high-quality Bolzoni forks is available to the local market".

Bolzoni Auramo Canada is a part of the Bolzoni Group, a market leader in the production of forklift attachments, forks and lift tables.
