FROM PROTOTYPE TO GLOBAL LEAD
OUR STORY
Founded on Leon Trudeau’s vision to transform precast pile cutting, our journey began after his two decades in construction and excavation. What started with a single prototype in Manitoba has evolved into a global powerhouse. Since establishing our U.S. presence in 2004, we have manufactured and sold over 300 cutters, delivering revolutionary cold cutting technology to markets in Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and Guatemala.
Headquartered in Broussard, LA, we offer six specialized cutter models capable of shearing material from 3 to 70 inches. Our patented hydraulic shears drive efficiency across decommissioning and pipeline removal projects from the Gulf of Mexico to the North Sea. By prioritizing environmentally friendly methods, we save our clients time and capital while maintaining an undeniable success rate on all cutting projects.
