MAGTEC is the premier provider of unique, wireless, on-board vehicle technologies providing Positive Vehicle Control features that offers state-of-the-art security, safety and cost saving features across broad sectors of the transportation industry.
WE'VE BEEN IN BUSINESS A LONG TIME
The roots of MAGTEC began in the U.K. where technology was developed to stop the theft of jeeps during Desert Storm. Since then, MAGTEC Products, Inc., was founded in 1995, and is headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
From the beginning, the company has experienced success practicing primarily in theft deterrence and vehicle security.
As a result of working closely with U.S. carriers, law enforcement and other government agencies, MAGTEC identified a need to re-focus in late 2001. Carriers shared wish lists in hopes of implementing improved control and management of their in-transit drivers and equipment.
Today, MAGTEC has become a leader specializing in developing and manufacturing commercial vehicle control systems specifically designed for the transit, trucking and heavy equipment industries. MAGTEC's preventive-based technology and FleetControl™ addresses challenges associated with security, driver management, safety, asset protection and prevention of cargo theft.
The company is headquartered in Calgary, AB and operates a wholly owned subsidiary, MAGTEC Products (USA), Inc., in Willowbrook, IL USA.

At MAGTEC, integrity means standing by the promises we make - whether it's to a customer or to an employee. Our word has always been, and always will be, our promise. We believe this attribute distinguishes us as a leader in the high-tech marketplace.Passion
At MAGTEC, we are passionate about our products and services, and the careful care we bestow on our customers and our employees relationships. Our entrepreneurial spirit drives this passion. We believe a company is truly what you make it. For this reason, we go to great lengths to offer our customers and employees the best possible experience.
These core values - loyalty, integrity and passion - are exemplified by our focused work ethic, the quality of our products and services, and by the special individuals who make up the MAGTEC team. Fast-paced, energetic and poised for growth, MAGTEC values the potential and influence of each individual, while recognizing the importance of taking risks to reach future goals.
MAGTEC listens to its customers and industry partners when determining the direction of new features and product offerings. MAGTEC’s Transportation Advisory Council meets regularly to discuss current issues, industry trends and possible methods to improve business operations from a safety and security standpoint. Major topics include finding new and creative ways to get a return on investment in security and safety initiatives, increasing profitability in the transportation of high-value goods and new practices, governance in the transportation of hazardous materials and the security and protection of vehicles consistent with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Transportation Security Administration (TSA).
The only thing better then a great product is one that operates on multiple platforms. This concept led MAGTEC to partner with some of the biggest players in the communication, security, software and technology industries.
These partnerships have allowed independent communication and software service providers to integrate directly with MAGTEC’s security products, creating ideal asset management services for their customers.
