At Menard, we believe in achieving more with less. This mindset originated from our founder, Louis Ménard, who created the pressuremeter, a tool that simplifies soil analysis, saving time and resources. We continued this approach by introducing techniques like Dynamic Compaction and Controlled Modulus Columns, all focusing on efficiency and minimal material usage. This philosophy guides the whole Menard Community, from sales to operations, emphasizing doing more with fewer resources. Our motto, “Less is More Menard” symbolizes using minimal resources for tasks, fostering innovation and growth.
