How MHICA provides the heavy lift on Canadian aircraft

You won’t see their logo on the tail of a jet, but the work done by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Canada Aerospace, Inc. (MHICA) has helped keep Bombardier aircraft in the skies since 2006. From a 474,000-square-foot facility in Mississauga, MHICA produces key components for some of the most recognized business jets in North America.

The company is part of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, a global engineering group with strong roots in Japan and decades of experience in energy, infrastructure, defence, space and aerospace.

MHICA reflects the group’s commitment to precision, reliability and cross-border collaboration. It employs more than 700 people and plays a key role in the structural assembly and systems installation of wings and centre fuselages for Bombardier’s Challenger and Global Express aircraft.

Its proximity to major clients enables responsive logistics and seamless co-ordination. Local engineers and technicians oversee each step of the build process, focusing on precision and safety. As the operation has expanded, so has its capacity to handle more advanced projects that demand deeper technical expertise.

At MHICA, progress is driven not only by technical systems, but by the mindset of the people behind them. There is a shared approach to the work: one that values care, focus and a strong sense of responsibility. You can see it in the way tasks are reviewed, how challenges are addressed and how quality is never compromised. That consistency has earned the team trust across the Mitsubishi network and reinforced its reputation for reliability. Even as the industry continues to change, MHICA’s commitment to doing things right remains unchanged.
