MAAX Bath Inc., Montréal, Que. is celebrating 50 years in business. Founded in 1969 in Tring-Jonction, Quebec, the company initially specialized in the manufacture of pools along with snowmobile and all-terrain vehicle components.
“Our success over the past half-century stems from our long-standing commitment to innovation,” said company president Mark Gold. “All of us at MAAX are proud of the rich legacy we have built together and are working hard to anticipate market trends and needs to continue to impress our customers for years to come.”
Over the years, MAAX expanded its product portfolio with bathtubs, showers, and shower doors. Today, MAAX is part of the American Bath Group (ABG) and has production facilities in North America including four in Canada. It employs nearly 1,400 people, including 630 in Quebec. In 2017, MAAX and Tennessee-based ABG merged.
