About us

2000: A pivotal moment arrived with the construction of a 7,500 square feet factory and 2,000 square feet of office space in the west industrial park of Terrebonne. Lainco diversified into design-build projects, setting industry benchmarks through the relentless efforts of its seasoned teams.

2001: The installation of an overhead crane covering 6,500 square feet in the outdoor yard marked another milestone, fueling the company’s expansion. Lainco’s achievements were acknowledged when it received the “Young Business of the Year 2002” award from the Terrebonne Chamber of Commerce.

2005: The factory doubled its size, now totaling 14,750 square feet, alongside an expansion of office space to 5,400 square feet. This expansion allowed for the reconfiguration of the initial production area, incorporating painting zones and small parts preparation areas to enhance efficiency.

2007: Celebrating its 10th anniversary, Lainco inaugurated an additional 2,900 square feet of office space for the drawing and design departments, totaling 8,300 square feet. The company shifted focus towards engineering services, specializing in complex projects. This strategic pivot shielded Lainco from the repercussions of the 2008-2010 recession, enabling it to maintain steady growth amidst a slowdown in the Quebec metal frame market.

2011: Expansion continued with the addition of a 15,900-square-foot bay for automated production, featuring cutting-edge equipment (Ficep). This investment significantly boosted productivity, reduced turnaround times, and enhanced manufacturing precision.

2018: Adding a production bay to the factory along with new offices, totaling 58,700 square feet, including 45,000 square feet for the factory and 13,700 square feet for offices.

The company is embracing a new management model. This transition enables owners to focus more on innovation and the long-term sustainability of the business.

2022: Marking its 25th anniversary, Lainco unveiled a revamped brand image, updated website, and a new positioning strategy to reinforce its unique identity.

2024: A year marked by dynamic growth and sustained success.

Lainco achieves AISC certification, a bold step in expanding its presence and meeting the demands of the American market, while maintaining its commitment to Canadian clients.

Lainco is strengthening its presence as part of its growth strategy and has signed a strategic acquisition with Sofab. Following this acquisition, Lainco takes the opportunity to restructure its entities to maintain the same level of service while enhancing its resources and expertise.

Office redesigns are underway to create more collaborative and flexible workspaces, fostering innovation and motivation. Department integration and the addition of a cafeteria in the reconfigured space are in progress. Investments in cutting-edge automated production aim to enhance productivity.
