MEET THE TEAM

Our team will take on any project, large or small!

GenTex employees travel across the globe to train customers, service equipment, and connect customers with equipment that they’ll need.

GARETT CUPPLES

President

Garett started working in the Oil & Gas Industry in the early 80’s operating Hot Oil Units across Alberta. After seeing the need for more operational experience in fabricating this type of equipment, Garett started his own business in the late 90’s and went on to buy out a major competitor in Texas in early 2000’s. He is proud to call Red Deer home and is involved in many organizations throughout Central Alberta as his way of giving back to our community.
