Our history

	In the early 60's, new methods of construction began transforming the existing commercial and residential market in the Montreal area. A new and revolutionary product was being introduced, the gypsum board. A more economical and faster method of building partition walls was now available.It was soon obvious to Gratien that a new way to service these builders was needed. Gratien, lost no time in and founded G.Proulx Inc. in 1966.

	Gratien, began looking for better trucks to accommodate the gypsum board size and bulkiness. The introduction of winches and pulleys, special carriages and many other devices were some of the solutions used until the advent of the boom-truck. A new service industry was taking shape and G. Proulx Inc. was at the forefront.Competition for the new growing market brought in new players that started offering similar services.

	Today, G. Proulx Inc. has expanded into a dynamic and resourceful multifacet company. Our main occupation at G.
