Weber MT started in North America with a master distributor in Bangor, Maine. After several years of continued growth the company decided to incorporate in the US and placed a subsidiary in Bangor in 1991.
In the late nineties Weber MT decided to focus solely on walk-behind compaction equipment and become a market leader. In a few short years the complete line of forward and reversible plates were transformed into the CF and CR series.
With this new business model and innovative products like COMPATROL® the company has set the standard in walk-behind compaction. Apart from added warehouses throughout Canada and the United States to better serve the North American market, its headquarters was also moved to Grand Rapids, Michigan in 2018. Weber MT services the market with select dealers, and manufacturer representatives are available for product demos and service.

Corporate philosophy / sustainability
Corporate philosophy
At Weber MT, we strive for streamlined efficiency from process to product. Nevertheless, our expectations as well as our products and services go well beyond the standard - and they continue to rise at every stage reached.
It goes without saying that we stay in compliance with all regulations that we are obligated to observe by law. These regulations include rules on occupational health and safety, environmental regulations, customs and export regulations as well as documentation requirements or the requirement to observe conformity regulations, etc. At our company, we have made compliance with these requirements mandatory.
No one can remain successful over the long run unless they supply their customers with excellent products for their hard-earned money. Whether a product or service possesses exceptional quality ultimately hinges on the know-how of the developer and manufacturer of the products. Quality and conduct in line with moral values are usually not the result of a comprehensive code of conduct. Rather, they are the product of an appropriate mindset and professional skills.
Our employees are a vital cornerstone of the success our company has been enjoying. We have, therefore, made it a priority to promote their initiative and willingness to perform. Discrimination of any kind and for whatever reason has no place in our company.
Sustainability
We will act according to the principle of ecological sustainability wherever and whenever we can do so. Indirectly, we will do so whenever we select a new supplier or opt for drive motors whose manufacturers subscribe to principles of ecological sustainability. And, we foster sustainability directly by such measures as selecting environmentally friendly paints for our products or opting for a heat recovery system in certain parts of the company.
Moreover, our powerful and efficient products make it possible to complete compaction operations on soil or pavers in a short period of time. Finally, technical equipment such as our compaction control system COMPATROL® helps reduce the number of redundant compacting runs. Both examples illustrate ways to lower fuel consumption and the emission of pollutants in the corresponding machines.
