We are the second largest single fluid analysis lab in North America - just after Caterpillar. We don’t just focus on the condition of your oil, we also are about the condition of your equipment.
Our tests results are supported by nearly 40 years of heavy equipment data, experience and Cat S·O·SSM Services Standardization 2013-2016-2020 and ISO 9001:2015 (2022).
We provide full test options for oil, coolant and fuel for any brand of heavy equipment.
Every report is reviewed and explained with recommendations focused on improving your bottom line.
We use Caterpillar science, product engineer-backed analysis and worldwide testing standards to deliver results you can rely on.
Get access to complete product knowledge, fluid properties and analysis of over 7 million worldwide samples each year – including over 300,000 collected by Toromont Cat.
We use our strong technical expertise and deep knowledge of maintenance and operational procedures to provide you with preventative maintenance advice for your equipment.
Using fluid data integrated with other vital condition monitoring information, we provide insights on health, performance, location and more.
Our team knows Cat and non-Cat engines and components better than anyone. 25% of all samples come from non-Cat equipment.
We handle oil, coolant and diesel fuel sampling for all kinds of equipment - from power generation to pipeline, mining to marine and more.
Some equipment manufacturers offer fluid sampling services, but they’re often outsourced to third parties. No other OEM offers the in-house capabilities we do.
