Our story
Building something that lasts
Summum Liner was born from a conviction: massive volumes of equipment — work trucks, trailers, heavy machinery, RVs — are exposed daily to rust and abrasion, lacking accessible, lasting protection.
The answer: exclusive XL-7 polyurea technology designed for Canadian climate (-40 °C to +40 °C), applied by certified technicians through a structured franchise network.
The opportunity
Over 80% of a $10 billion market still untapped
Imagine a piece of equipment degrading prematurely — because its owner never had access to quality protection. That's the reality for 80% of the Canadian market.
Every fleet owner comes back regularly with new equipment. This recurring revenue model, in a market still largely untapped, creates a unique opportunity in Canada.
Exclusive XL-7 technology
Patented formula, built for Canadian climate. The only network authorized to apply it in Canada — no direct competition possible.
Protection -40 °C to +40 °C
A coating engineered for Canadian winters. Permanent adhesion on steel, aluminum, and composites — regardless of season.
Recurring revenue & multi-unit
Every fleet owner comes back regularly. Several franchisees choose to operate multiple territories to build a multi-million dollar business.
