The Coulson Group of Companies (“Coulson Group”) is a dynamic, diversified, family-owned enterprise operating businesses in the aviation, manufacturing and entertainment sectors.

Over the last 64 years, the Coulson Group has consistently provided clients and customers with quality services and products, highly qualified technical staff and innovative support solutions.

During the 1990s, the Coulson Group expanded into aviation and has since become a global leader in specialty aviation services with an employee base of over 550 people. As the only aerial firefighting company operating both fixed-wing Large Air Tankers and Type 1 helicopters, Coulson Aviation (Coulson Aircrane Ltd.) is fully equipped to carry out aerial firefighting across the globe.
