Canada at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026

Canadian companies exhibiting at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026 bring experience shaped by some of the industry's toughest working conditions. Serving customers across vast geographies who work in extreme weather, on resource projects, and in tightly regulated environments has a way of exposing what actually works (and what doesn't) on real job sites. That reality has pushed Canadian manufacturers and technology providers to develop practical, robust solutions on display at this year's show. The following exhibitors offer you a closer look at how that uniquely Canadian perspective is being applied on the CONEXPO show floor, with equipment and technologies built to address challenges they know well.
