“We like it here.”
That’s how Roy Slack, president of Cementation Canada sums up his company’s decision to invest in a new North American maintenance facility in North Bay.
Cementation Canada has recently been lauded for its workplace safety efforts, and a look around the new maintenance facility on Legault Street shows why.
The new facility boasts numerous safety measures that prevent workplace dangers before they happen and significantly increases work and warehouse space as well as enhanced lifting, electrical and compressed air capacity to further support the servicing of Cementation’s underground fleets, raise boring plants and shaft sinking equipment, used on mining projects around the globe.
The new facility and expanded staging area, which cost upwards of $10 million to build, is really an extension of another Cementation Canada project. The company built a 10,000 square foot shop in 2006. This will continue to be used as heated warehousing space and for shipping and receiving.
