our story

It was the commissioning of the first low volume, automatic, concentrate sprayer by Agriculture Canada’s Dr. James Marshall that led to the introduction of the “Turbo-mist” airblast sprayer in 1948. From this early prototype, our Turbo-mist sprayer has evolved into the leading airblast sprayer technology for virtually every crop.

With 70 years of wind and water engineering behind us, Slimline remains at the forefront of innovation. Anticipating and leading the drive toward improved environmental sustainability in agriculture and industry is what drives our engineering team.

From the Turbo-mister to the EcoMister Evaporator, Enhanced Evaporation technology started here. The engineers at Slimline Manufacturing created the original Turbo-mister as a custom solution for a mining client over 25 years ago, and our team has been improving the performance of our evaporators ever since.

a message from the president...

I am extremely proud to have been invited into a business whose roots extend over 50 years. Our initial products reflected the family farm values of the customers who purchased them. Today, as we strive to be industry leaders in technology it is our obligation to protect those same family farm values as we build next gen products for the Global market.
