QUEBEC CITY – Motion Composites has officially opened its new U.S. assembly facility in Plattsburgh, N.Y. This strategic move reinforces the company’s long-standing commitment to its U.S. customers and end-users by providing U.S.- assembled wheelchairs to the American market, it says. The Plattsburgh site allows the company to assemble key product lines closer to its U.S. partners—simplifying logistics while maintaining the same high design and performance standards that define the brand. “This isn’t just a new building, it’s a new chapter,” said Eric Simoneau, CEO of Motion Composites. “It reflects our long-term vision for the U.S. market. In a world that’s constantly evolving, this is a smart, forward-looking step, one that helps us navigate future uncertainties, seize opportunities, and fuel continued growth, all while empowering people through mobility.” Assembly operations in Plattsburgh currently include select wheelchair models, with plans to gradually ramp up production as the facility scales. Every wheelchair assembled in Plattsburgh is built to the same rigorous quality and engineering standards upheld at the company’s Canadian headquarters, the company says. “This is an important operational milestone,” said David Sicotte, vice president of operations. “It enhances our ability to scale efficiently while remaining laser-focused on product quality and operational excellence.”
