History
In 1982 Normand Carpentier and Michel Lasalle acquired four Bombardier divisions, including Roski Ltd., and founded Camoplast Inc.
Camoplast purchased the industrial vehicles division of Bombardier Recreational Products in late August 2004. Bombardier manufactured snow and all-terrain vehicles with rubber tracks from the 1950s. The industrial vehicles division, based in Sherbrooke, Quebec, made tracked utility vehicles such as snow grooming snowcats for skiing, sidewalk snow removal tractors and heavy duty tracked transporters, including the descendant of the original Bombardier Muskeg tractor.
Subsequently, Camoplast sold its Track Machines Division to Prinoth, which is part of the Leitner Group [1].
In 2010 Camoplast acquired Groupe Solideal, a company based in Luxembourg that manufactures tires, tracks and wheels for the industrial and construction markets.
On August 23, 2013, Camoplast-Solideal's Composite Division was acquired by four company managers and became a corporation in its own right under the name Roski Composites, presided by Yves Carbonneau.
On July 3, 2015, Camoplast Solideal was renamed to Camso to "represent the best of Camoplast and Solideal".
