Specializing in two types of airport equipment — Ground Support Equipment and Airfield Maintenance Eq

Every airport should know the answer before winter begins.
If a primary snow-removal unit becomes unavailable:
• Is backup equipment ready?
• Are operators trained on the backup unit?
• Can the remaining fleet meet operational needs?
• Is service support available?
• Would a seasonal rental help close the gap?
Equipment contingency planning is an important part of winter readiness.
Fortbrand can help your airport evaluate its current fleet and identify options before a failure becomes an emergency.

The best time to make a snow equipment decision is well before the first forecast calls for snow.
Fleet condition, capacity, replacement timing and procurement should all be part of the same readiness conversation.
Fortbrand’s Sourcewell Contract #111522-FTB includes airfield maintenance equipment ranging from multifunctional SRE and snow tractors to sweeper/blowers and high-capacity blowers.
If the upcoming winter is exposing a fleet gap, the conversation should start now—not during the storm.

The equipment is only part of the job.
Fortbrand AME supports work across the airport — from snow removal, mowing, and sweeping to the service, training, and technology that keep those operations moving.
Because supplying the machine is one thing. Helping an airport keep its people prepared, its equipment supported, and its operation running is something much bigger.
That's the role we've built Fortbrand AME to fill.
Nicholas Brown is celebrating 2 years with Fortbrand today!
We’re grateful to have you on the team. Here’s to many more.

A small equipment issue in October can become a major operational problem during a winter storm.
Hydraulic leaks, electrical concerns, worn components, attachment problems, and recurring performance issues should be addressed before equipment is placed under extended winter demand.
Fortbrand’s service team can help airports evaluate concerns, complete repairs, and prepare critical equipment for the season ahead.
Do not carry an unresolved issue into winter.

October is here, and winter operations are getting closer.
This is the time to complete the work that cannot wait until the first storm:
• Finish necessary repairs
• Test attachments and controls
• Confirm equipment availability
• Review backup capacity
• Prepare operators
• Address remaining fleet gaps
A successful winter season begins before snow reaches the pavement.
Fortbrand works with airports to assess equipment, coordinate service, and identify practical options for strengthening winter readiness.
Contact our team before the season begins.

A few moments from GSE Expo Europe 2026 in Lisbon.
For Fortbrand, events like this are about the people as much as the equipment — spending time with customers, partners and colleagues, catching up on what’s happening across GSE, and having the conversations that are harder to replace with a phone call or email.
We had a great few days in Portugal representing Fortbrand and connecting with the industry.
Thanks to everyone who spent some time with us in Lisbon. We’ll see you at the next one.

Behind every piece of equipment on the airfield is a team of people who designed, built, tested, supported, and continue to improve it.
On Manufacturing Day, Fortbrand recognizes the OEM partners, engineers, technicians, and skilled professionals behind the equipment airports depend on every day.
We’re proud to work alongside manufacturers who keep pushing aviation forward.

The best equipment can only perform as well as the team operating it, and training helps airport personnel understand equipment capabilities, recognize operational limitations, apply proven practices, and make better decisions under pressure.
Fortbrand’s training programs are built around practical airport experience and the realities teams face during winter operations.
As your airport prepares its equipment for the upcoming season, make operator preparation part of the same plan.
Watch for upcoming Fortbrand training opportunities and contact our team to learn more.
