Lean Fabrication

Lean Fabrication

Fabrication is at the heart of what we do.

We bring together advanced engineering techniques, state-of-the-art technology and highly skilled people, who always approach fabrication with the end construction in mind. Every product has to fit perfectly with every other, whether we create all components of the project, or we collaborate with other trades. We can produce the highest quality piece of material, but we can only deliver a successful project if everything fits perfectly to create a harmonious whole.

Seamless Integration with Engineering

Everyone in our engineering group models and details to the same standards to provide outputs that inform production. We use proprietary software that bundles all of the outputs including drawings and electronic files into our manufacturing software. Within minutes, we go from a 3D model to digital data and CNC files, seamlessly.

Advanced Manufacturing Techniques

The very nature of our unique and complex projects drives our culture of continuous improvement. We have a culture of lean manufacturing and are continually improving and integrating our people, processes and technologies to drive efficiency and competitiveness.

State-of-the-Art Technology

Our products drive the technology we use. We use state-of-the-art equipment to create the unusual and complex forms that comprise our work. These same tools also add efficiency when we fabricate more straightforward elements.

Highly Skilled Team

We have a highly skilled team of tradespeople – welders, fitters, and ironworkers. Many of our team members have been with us throughout their careers and have deep expertise in their craft. To support our team, we focus on continuous skills development and training.

High Quality Finishing Capabilities

We have a dedicated blasting and paint facility that is climate controlled and can achieve automotive-level quality finishes – providing exceptional finishing with a minimum of maintenance.
