the company

History

Produits Forestiers Munger inc. was established in 1991 as a manufacturer of hydraulic brush cutters for excavators. Soon after, PFMI spread its activities to sawmills, offering technical support and building custom machinery. During the 1990’s, we quickly expanded our services towards the manufacturing industry as well as the construction business.

The specific requirements of these new partners progressively led the company to expand its expertise and knowhow.  We created a wide range of lifting and handling apparatuses and metal forming machines.

From the turn of the millennium, for the precast concrete sector, PFMI designed and built cement and aggregate processing systems.  We also created reusable steel forms, of miscellaneous shapes and sizes, for the serial precast of concrete parts.

Since 2006, we design and build suspended work platforms for maintenance work in industrial environments that use large storage tanks and silos.  These unique hoisted platforms shorten shutdown times while improving worker safety and comfort.

Since its inception, PFMI has created specialized tools for complex tasks. Today, PFMI’s customer base is divers and dynamic, and continually motivates the evolution of our capacities.
