Enterprise is at the heart of Maple Reinders’ origins and the driving force of our growth today. Enterprise is about innovation, but more than that, it is about initiative, courage, discipline and creativity. It is a realistic and impassioned pursuit of overcoming challenges, and collaborative problem-solving to achieve and surpass our client’s goals.
Half a century from our inception, we remain true to the enterprising mindset instilled by our founder. From designing and building North America’s largest in-vessel composting facility to delivering the first commercial structure in Canada to be built with sustainable BubbleDeck technology to building our own in-house proprietary project management software, we continue to pursue design and construction challenges with passion and integrity, consistently winning larger and more complex projects with our expertise and innovation.
