😎 As VMAC celebrates its 40th anniversary, we're taking a look back at some of the moments that helped shape who we are today. This photo captures an early team meeting where ideas were shared, challenges were tackled, and the foundation for continuous improvement was built. Long before VMAC became a recognized leader in mobile compressed air and multi-power systems, it was dedicated coworkers working together around tables like this one who helped drive innovation forward.

From our beginnings in 1986 to today, VMAC has remained committed to engineering excellence, operational improvement, and building a strong workplace culture. The technology has changed, our facility has grown, and our products have evolved, but the spirit of collaboration shown in photos like this remains at the heart of VMAC.

Here's to 40 years of innovation, teamwork, and continuous improvement. And we're just getting started.

🚂 Bringing history back to life, one railway tie at a time. Before opening for the season, the team at the BC Forest Discovery Centre was busy restoring sections of railway track to help preserve their historic rail operations for future generations.

VMAC was proud to support the project by providing a G90 Gas Driven Air Compressor with FlexDrive AMS. With continuous air on demand, the G90 powered the pneumatic tools needed to remove old ties, install new ones, and keep the restoration moving efficiently.
What once took a full day of work was completed in just a few hours, helping the team make significant progress before welcoming visitors back for the season.

We're honored to play a small part in helping preserve an important piece of history while showcasing how the VMAC G90 can deliver serious productivity wherever the job takes you.

With integrated lighting, a Tiger Crane, and VMAC's H40 delivering reliable rotary screw compressed air powered by the truck's hydraulic system, operators have the tools they need to stay productive and minimize downtime in the field.

This takes us back to the early days of VMAC, when founder Tony Menard could often be found right on the shop floor, working alongside the equipment that helped turn big ideas into industry-changing innovation.

Long before VMAC became a global leader in mobile compressed air, Tony and the team spent countless hours machining parts, refining designs, and pushing the limits of what was possible. Those early investments in manufacturing, craftsmanship, and innovation laid the foundation for a company that would go on to invent the world's first vehicle-mounted rotary screw air compressor and revolutionize the mobile compressed air industry.

Today, as VMAC celebrates 40 years in business, we recognize that our success was built by people like Tony, the machines they operated, and the determination that transformed a small Vancouver Island manufacturer into a trusted supplier of mobile air compressors and multi-power systems used across North America and around the world.

The technology has evolved. The products have expanded. But the spirit of innovation, perseverance, and hard work remains the same.

Thank you, Tony, for helping build a legacy that continues to power industries 40 years later.
