Update: Expansion of Paint and Coating Operations
January 19, 2022
In March 2021, Waiward acquired a second paint and coating facility located in Nisku, AB. The new 30,360 sq. ft. will augment Waiward’s existing 36,000 sq. ft. paint and coating capacity at our primary facility in Edmonton. The new facility will allow Waiward to further separate itself as the largest steel fabricator in Western Canada, improving our schedule flexibility to meet the growing demands of our customers.
The new paint shop is now fully operational, and is now coating and painting steel for the LNG Canada Kitimat Terminal with deliveries continuing well into 2022.
Note:
In October 2020, Gitga’at Waiward Industrial was awarded the contract to supply stick-built steel to JGC Fluor, the engineering, procurement, and construction contractor for the LNG Canada Project.
We would like to thank our partners, Gitga’at First Nation, LNG Canada, and JCG Fluor for the amazing opportunity to partner with the local community on this project.
