Hilltip will host its first-ever North American Fleet Days event in Fort Wayne, Indiana, on May 21 and 22, 2026. The event offers educational and networking opportunities specifically for winter maintenance professionals.

Organizers will open the program with product presentations and live demonstrations, including equipment updates and several new spreader and plow models for the 2026-2027 season. Later, the company will provide technical service trainings and lead discussions on current industry trends. The daily schedule runs from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. EDT, with identical programming both days to give attendees flexibility. Organizers will provide lunch, and a networking dinner on the evening of May 21 will allow participants to connect with Hilltip staff and fellow professionals from across North America.

“This event will provide a special sneak peek at our new offerings, as well as valuable product trainings and helpful insights on addressing current trends,” said Craig Sandmann, Managing Director for Hilltip North America. “It’s also a great opportunity to see our newly updated North American facility, where we continue to grow our business with industry-leading products and technology for the winter maintenance market.”

Hilltip, headquartered in Pietarsaari, Finland, manufactures road maintenance equipment in a region with at least six months of annual snowfall. Following its 2022 acquisition of Industrial Metal Products, Hilltip now operates a manufacturing, sales, and service location in Fort Wayne. Interested attendees can register online.
