Our profile
Mecfab was originally a family business operating in the pulp and paper industry.
The company was founded in 1975 by Jacques Hamel.
In 1981, Mecfab transferred its factory to Boucherville and mainly covered the Canadian and American markets. In addition, Sweden and Germany are also among its customers. In 1985, Mecfab again expanded by creating a second factory located opposite the first. In this factory, Mecfab joins forces with new companies and works together with them to manufacture vacuum furnaces for heat treatment, as well as a laser vision system for industrial robots. During the years that followed, Mecfab dabbled in aeronautics and cryogenics and became involved in the chemical and petrochemical industry.
In 2005, Industrie Lemieux Inc. acquired Mecfab and thus consolidated its position in the pulp and paper industry. From now on, the company is mainly dedicated to this area. Its expertise mainly concerns the wet end of paper machines and specializes in headboxes, fourdriniers and presses. In addition, she is regularly called upon to perform maintenance or installation work on paper mills. Its site team has extensive expertise on all types of equipment.
