An integrated solutions partner in the compressed-gas industry across Western Canada, MaXfield does business by getting things done right the first time. As a manufacturer of pressurised tank trailers for a variety of liquefied gases, MaXfield ensures it operates in a safe environment, providing cost-saving benefits and assured quality service to its customers.

Headquartered in Crossfield, Alberta, MaXfield - which stands for Manufacturing at Crossfield - has niche markets in the oil and gas, agricultural, anhydrous ammonia and propane distribution sectors. The company has satellite plants and offices in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan and Brandon, Manitoba.

Working with the largest energy producers and bulk carriers such as Suncor, Nexen, Gibson and Trimac, MaXfield's diversified products include fabricated pressure vessels, pipe spooling, structural skids and cargo transport. Going through dynamic organic growth expansion, MaXfield's revenue grew exponentially from HK$51 million in 2002 to HK$513 million last year.

MaXfield offers integrated support services, from the upstream process of supplying fracturing equipment, to midstream which includes building storage tanks, to downstream transport for retail applications.

A rare feat in the fabricating sector, MaXfield is able to meet various needs across manufacturing functions.

"You can get the full package from MaXfield without having to source from different suppliers," says Tony Giasson, president and chief operating officer.

To maintain safety and quality, MaXfield monitors product inspection schedules and sends clients the list of equipment due for retesting. With up-to-date regulatory safety certifications, MaXfield also develops regulations for the industry.

Ensuring the best service, MaXfield has designed a refinery gate for its trucking system, which other truckers in Western Canada have also adopted. "Our innovative product has become a standard in the industry," Giasson says.

MaXfield looks for potential partners, particularly as it seeks to grow its oil and gas, and also its structural and assembly services.

"At MaXfield, we do not just create products - we provide solutions," says Budi Setiawan, board chair and CEO.
