What we do

From the plant to the job site

We cover the whole supply chain for contractors and rebar fabricators, from making the product to dropping it on site the next day.

  1. Manufacturing

    We make wire mesh, concrete formwork hardware and insulated curing tarps, with in-house engineering and quality control.

  2. Overseas sourcing & import

    Our overseas production team and partners supply steel and construction products, which we import and clear through customs ourselves.

  3. Distribution

    From a 30,000+ sq ft warehouse we stock concrete accessories, fasteners, waterproofing, sealants and building envelope products.

  4. Local service & delivery

    Our own truck fleet delivers next-day across Ontario and into Quebec, backed by a sales team that knows the products.
