About Rowland Emergency

Rowland Emergency’s roots can be traced back to 1957 when our founder, Grant Rowland, started his own vehicle maintenance and repair company. His business vision was simple: to produce high-quality work, service what we sell and service it well.


In 2000, Grant’s son, Scott, recognized a need for quality suppliers in the Emergency Medical Services market and re-positioned the company to focus exclusively in the EMS field. Scott’s bold and strategic decision paid off, and today Rowland Emergency is among the most trusted custom EMS solutions providers across Canada. In fact, the company is now in its third generation of family ownership with Scott’s son, Blake, welcomed to the fold to provide a fresh entrepreneurial vision and innovate our business even further.

Today, Rowland Emergency continues Grant’s legacy of providing the company’s clients with an unwavering dedication to exceptional-quality workmanship, innovative solutions and a steadfast commitment to outstanding client services.

As Canada’s premier EMS solutions provider, we never settle for the status quo. We continuously develop in-house custom EMS solutions that help our clients work better and smarter, empowering patient care while helping to protect paramedics in emergency situations.

Our Solutions

We innovate solutions for the EMS industry with a focus on upfitting ambulances, emergency response units, specialty response units, patient transfer vehicles and specialty off-road all-terrain vehicles. We also custom-develop a wide variety of products to complement the vehicles that we produce such as stretcher mounting blocks and defibrillator poles. This is made possible through our talented in-house fabrication department utilizing the latest 3D modeling software, CNC milling, waterjet cutting and press brake machinery which allows us to mass-produce custom precision products that serve our customers’ wants and needs in a timely fashion

We are pleased to work with Rowland Emergency for all our emergency response vehicle needs. Rowland has built their business model on exceptional customer service coupled with innovative solutions, exceptional build quality and high-quality workmanship. After 15 years of ordering Rowland-built vehicles, they have never failed us and are our logical choice for mission-critical vehicle needs.

From recommending which off-road unit to purchase, to sitting with us and designing every feature, to working with us every step of the way to ensure our paramedic team was receiving the best possible product for our response purposes, we were extremely impressed with the professionalism and high quality put into our final product. Thanks to Rowland, we are confident our emergency response exceeds all levels of expectations of the public we serve.
