ATMAX Equipment Co. was started in 2001 by Tim Ward and his father, David Ward Jr., to build compact equipment for the landscaping and construction industries that would greatly improve the productivity and profitability of companies. By 2006, ATMAX had developed the worlds only rubber tracked, truck mounted forklift for delivery sod and building material. However, the Great Recession hit in 2008 and ATMAX quickly realized it needed to change directions. Tim saw an opportunity with industrial mower industry and developed a compact, heavy-duty, wide area mower for governments called the MowerMax. This lead to the development of the western hemisphere’s first purpose built boom mower that was designed from the ground up to be far superior to the antiquated tractor-mounted boom mower!
