HIAB invented the world's first hydraulic truck mounted crane in 1947 and since it's introduction in Canada in 1954, HIAB has been Canada's most popular articulated truck crane. The reason is simple -- HIAB truck cranes are engineered and built better to work harder and last longer. HIAB crane owners expect long term dependability and value.
With over 60 models to choose from, there’s a HIAB truck mounted crane just right for your application. Truck crane models range in capacities from 0.8 up to 80 tonne meters with long reaches out to 25 meters. HIAB's superior hydraulic systems give you unmatched control of the crane and advanced ergonomic designs ensure operator comfort.

An Atlas Polar Mixveyor Conveyor mounted on a mixer truck offers a very flexible delivery package that is both convenient and economical.Imagine being able to easily reach and pour footings and walls up to 51' away from the truck in most residential, commercial and industrial sites.


Atlas Polar Company Ltd. is a privately held Canadian manufacturing and distribution firm with offices in Toronto, Calgary, Edmonton and Montreal. Incorporated in 1938, Atlas Polar has grown from a local supplier of Polar marine engines to a multifaceted North American company. The three interrelated divisions at Atlas Polar include Truck Mounted Material Handling Equipment, Polar Crane Remote Controls and Trash Rake Systems.


Make the move to automatic trashraking with the ATLAS POLAR HYDRORAKE — the most reliable system for cleaning intake racks.
This fully automatic system economically replaces handraking, which is still the most common method of rack maintenance. In fact, the HYDRORAKE is designed to imitate the steps performed by an individual during the raking motion and can work automatically — 24 hours a day. It keeps on working even in cold weather.
A fast payback on your investment is ensured as facilities protected by the HYDRORAKE show increased flow efficiency, and reduced operations and maintenance costs. Also, crew morale and safety increase dramatically with this automatic system.

Moffett Truck Mounted Forklift
 
The most flexible portable delivery system on the market, Moffett truck mounted forklifts are lightweight, allowing you to maximize truck loads and making them suitable for use on most trucks and trailers. Hydrostatic all-wheel drive means outstanding maneuverability for safety and efficiency. Models range in lifting capacity from 1500 lbs. up to 8000 lbs. The availability of job-specific models means things like working in tight spaces and handling wide containers are easier than ever with Moffett forklifts, Canada’s #1 choice for a portable truck or trailer mounted piggyback forklift.
 
Multilift Hooklift
 
Multilift hooklifts feature advanced hydraulic and control systems, providing superior ease of use. That means a single operator can use one truck and Multilift to move, load, and unload materials quickly and safely. Lightweight construction allows more lifting capacity, and high tensile steel and tipping cylinders provide stability and longevity for your equipment. Multilifts require minimal service and are designed for durability and reliability.
 
HiVolt Alert™ Proximity Alarm System
 
HiVolt AlertTM Proximity Alarm System alerts operators when equipment becomes dangerously close to high voltage power lines, providing a safer job environment for operators as well as those on the ground. This is a wireless system with sensors that can be placed on virtually all types of equipment with some type of extension, such as a boom arm or mast. HiVolt AlertTM is an easy-to-use and versatile system when operating ladder trucks, dump trucks, TV location vans with expandable antennas, logging trucks and tree-trimming trucks.
 
Mixveyor Concrete Conveyor
 
The Mixveyor Conveyor can be mounted on a mixer truck, allowing flexible and convenient delivery of concrete. Using the Mixveyor allows you to easily reach and pour concrete in different directions without having to move the truck, in spots up to 51’ away from the truck, making it versatile for uses in residential, commercial, and industrial job sites.

State-of-the-art Atlas Polar waterway debris cleaning and control systems have kept water flowing in the most extreme conditions – 24/7 – at more than 400 installations across North America. For over 40 years, they’ve been proven to dramatically increase flow efficiency, reduce operations and maintenance costs, and improve safety and morale at water intakes, hydroelectric dams, irrigation canals, and fish ladders. We build them. We test them. And we stand by them.
 
HYDRORAKE® is the #1 intake screen trash cleaning system in North America. It’s highly effective in even the most extreme cold conditions, and works with most any bar spacing or incline. Flexible HMI screen allows operational sequencing for most flows or conditions. It is fully scalable, and multiple units can be used simultaneously for large volumes of debris. And, remote controlled with automatic start times, it’s the safest, most reliable system available.
 
Our HYDROBRUSH® system’s cleaning action meets stringent fish and wildlife protection regulations, and is fully electric-hydraulic, and automatic. Its horizontal brushing motion keeps water flowing consistently, and maintains a constant pressure on screens of most any angle, for faster cleaning cycles, lower operation costs and safer fish populations.
 
Atlas Polar’s STOPLOG LIFTER® water management system has been reducing the hazards of stop log control in North America’s dams and hydroelectric sluiceways for over 50 years. Even in severe conditions, it safely and effectively removes, stacks, retrieves and replaces logs within a waterway.
 
Our state-of-the-art HDPE POLAR RACKS™ set the new standard for trash racks. They resist just about any debris that can impede your water flow: frazil ice, anchor ice, and destructive marine growth. Racks have high UV protection of for longer life.. No matter the impact or weather conditions, they’re a costeffective solution for power generation plants, pulp and paper mills, municipal water intakes, waste treatment plants, and other applications.
