Based in Ontario, Wilcox will serve customers throughout Canada, providing on-site operator safety training and other aftersales support.

His appointment is part of the company’s expansion of its North American operations in Canada. In 2024, Brokk opened a new distribution center in Hamilton, Ontario.

“Aaron has spent most of his career with a control box in his hands,” said Lars Lindgren, president of Brokk Inc. “He knows the ins and outs of the machines and how to work safely and effectively in different applications. Along with his deep knowledge, customers will appreciate his high-energy approach to ensuring they are up and running.”

Wilcox’s responsibilities include commissioning new machines, training operators how to maintain and safely operate demolition robots and providing other aftersales support, such as accessing spare parts.

He was introduced to Brokk demolition robots in the 1990s and has continued to work with the equipment for refractory demolition, on and off between shutdown jobs and long-term crane projects, for 25 years.

“Brokk machines have always had a piece of my heart. I’ve been working with them for decades, and they almost feel like an extension of myself,” Wilcox said. “It’s a privilege to go out to customer jobsites and teach them what I’ve learned over the years, so they can achieve excellent safety and maximum profitability.”
