Company Overview
About Heli Headquartered in Hefei, Anhui, China
Anhui Heli was founded in 1958 as the Hefei Mining Machinery Factory, a small state-owned enterprise in Anhui Province, China. It later shifted its focus to material handling and was reorganized as the Hefei Forklift Factory in 1983, establishing forklift trucks as its core product. The company listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange in 1996 under the name Anhui Heli.
Headquartered in Hefei, Heli is the largest forklift manufacturer in China and ranks among the largest in the world by sales. Its lineup spans internal-combustion and electric counterbalance forklifts, warehouse and reach trucks, and related material-handling and light construction equipment. Heli has steadily expanded internationally, opening regional centers in Europe in 2014, Southeast Asia in 2018, North America in 2019 and the Middle East in 2022.
With more than six decades of manufacturing experience, Heli has built a reputation for a broad, competitively priced product range and a large global distribution footprint, exporting to well over 100 countries. Its scale and vertical integration have made it a major force in the international forklift market, and its equipment is widely used in warehousing, distribution and industrial handling.
In Canada, Heli products are handled by Heli Canada, based in Drummondville, Quebec, which imports Heli's full forklift line-up and supplies a dealer network of roughly two dozen dealers nationwide. The Canadian operation maintains a substantial in-country inventory of trucks and parts, supporting sales, service and national accounts from coast to coast.

Why Canada Chooses Heli
Heli in the Canadian Construction Market
Chinese construction equipment manufacturers have made extraordinary strides in product quality, reliability, and dealer network development over the past two decades. Heli, one of China's leading heavy equipment brands, has invested heavily in global certification programs, international manufacturing standards, and Canadian dealer infrastructure to serve the growing segment of contractors seeking premium performance at competitive price points.
For Canadian businesses managing tight project margins, Heli equipment offers a compelling value proposition: machinery built to international CE and ANSI standards, with competitive daily rental rates that stretch project budgets further. This is particularly relevant for small and mid-size contractors, landscaping firms, utility companies, and municipalities that need reliable equipment without the premium pricing of legacy North American or Japanese brands.
Heli's growing Canadian dealer presence - with service centers in major metropolitan areas and increasingly in secondary markets - means parts and qualified technicians are closer to the job site than ever before. For rental equipment available through HeavyRentals.ca, you can count on machines that are maintained to manufacturer specifications by knowledgeable Canadian owners.
Renting Heli equipment through HeavyRentals.ca gives you access to owner-maintained machines from across Canada. Our platform's verified owner network means every Heli unit listed has been maintained to the standards that protect your production and your crew's safety. Daily, weekly, and monthly rental options give you the flexibility to scale your fleet to project demands - with no long-term capital commitment.

Canadian Job Sites
Where Heli Equipment Performs Across Canada
Urban Infill & Residential
Tight access, noise restrictions, and proximity to existing structures define urban construction in Canadian cities. Compact equipment excels where larger machines simply cannot operate.
Landscaping & Site Prep
From residential landscaping to commercial site preparation across Canada's suburbs, compact loaders and skid steers are the workhorses of smaller-scale earthmoving.
Utilities & Infrastructure
Municipal utility work - water main replacement, storm drain installation, and road cuts - frequently requires equipment small enough to work in live traffic corridors and tight rights-of-way.
Cold-Weather Readiness
Canada's winters test every piece of machinery. Temperatures in northern and central Canada regularly drop below -30°C, with extreme cold snaps reaching -50°C with windchill in some regions. Heli equipment is built to start, operate, and maintain full productivity in these conditions - with hydraulic systems, engine cooling, and electrical systems engineered for extreme cold as a standard expectation, not an afterthought. On HeavyRentals.ca, Canadian Heli owners maintain their machines with winter-grade fluids and cold-climate service packages so you get equipment that performs when temperatures plunge.
Regulatory Compliance
Canada's provincial and federal construction regulations set rigorous standards for equipment safety, emissions, and operator protection. Heli machines certified for the Canadian market meet Transport Canada, CSA, and provincial WorkSafe regulations out of the factory. This compliance infrastructure gives contractors the confidence to deploy rented equipment on government contracts, municipal projects, and safety-audited job sites without modification or variance requests. When you rent Heli through HeavyRentals.ca, you're getting market-certified equipment from verified Canadian owners.

Rental Advantage
Why Rent Heli Instead of Buying?
Zero Depreciation
New heavy equipment depreciates 20-30% in its first year. Renting means you pay only for utilization - no balance sheet liability, no residual value risk on your fleet.
Right Machine Every Job
Different projects need different equipment configurations. Renting from HeavyRentals.ca means you can spec the exact Heli model for the task - not make do with what you own.
No Maintenance Overhead
When you rent, maintenance is the owner's responsibility. Skip the dealer relationship management, service scheduling, and parts inventory that comes with ownership.
Scale With Your Pipeline
Whether you have one project or twelve running simultaneously, a rental approach scales your fleet instantly - add machines when busy, return them when idle. No fixed costs.
Heli Rental for Canadian Projects
Canada's project-based construction economy - driven by short paving and building seasons, annual municipal budget cycles, and the boom-bust nature of resource extraction - is structurally well-suited to equipment rental. Contractors who rent their Heli fleet through HeavyRentals.ca maintain the flexibility to scale operations seasonally without the long-term overhead of ownership.
For smaller contractors, municipalities, and first-time operators, renting also provides access to higher-specification Heli machines than their capital budget could support through purchase. A tier-one excavator or high-capacity crane that would be unattainable as a purchase becomes an accessible weekly rental for a specific project phase.
Heli maintains an established Canadian dealer network through Distributed in Canada by Heli Canada (Drummondville, QC) through a national dealer network, ensuring parts and factory support are available in every major market - adding an additional layer of confidence when renting Heli equipment from verified owners on our platform.
