Overview

Years of Expertise

The company has evolved into a design-build powerhouse over its extensive history.

Specializes in pre-engineered steel and conventional steel building systems, often leading projects from 3D visualization to key handover.
Typically delivers commercial and industrial facilities, plus custom steel structures and tilt‑up concrete buildings across the Prairies.
Embraces a collaborative, single-source model—clients work directly with integrated design and construction teams.
Backed by strong financial grounding, the company sustains steady growth through efficient project delivery and risk-managed budgets.
Its standout edge: immersive tools like VR and 360° walkthroughs, enabling clients to “see before they build.”
Unusual fact: As Manitoba’s largest Behlen dealer, it leverages industrial-grade steel solutions rarely offered by regional builders.
