Adding the full line of American Augers and Trencor products to Brandt's existing underground equipment offering improves Canadian support and distribution for a complete line that covers all sizes of equipment.

"Brandt's strong infrastructure makes our premium equipment much more accessible to the Canadian market," said Joe Smith, American Augers' director of sales and marketing. "It's an exciting opportunity for contractors and American Augers."

Canadian contractors will now have easier access to the largest equipment available, from auger boring machines with up to 1,200,000lbs of maximum thrust, to industry-leading directional drills with up to 100,000ft-lbs of maximum torque.

The two companies' shared commitment to maximizing customer uptime has resulted in a 24/7 support network. With American Augers' and Trencor's premium-quality products and Brandt's exceptional dealership and parts warehouse infrastructure, Canadian contractors can expect better-than-ever uptime to keep them digging, even in the toughest conditions.

The Brandt Group of Companies - headquartered in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada - is comprised of Brandt Agricultural Products, Brandt Engineered Products, Brandt Equipment Solutions, Brandt Road Rail, Brandt Positioning Technology, Brandt Truck Rigging & Trailers, Brandt Finance, Brandt Developments Ltd., and Brandt Tractor Ltd.
