Across Canada, forestry and manufacturing operations depend on custom steel fabrication to stay productive and safe. From sawmills to processing plants, these industries need strong steel components that can handle heavy use and harsh conditions.
At S2 Metal Fabricators, we build steel solutions that support your operation from the ground up. Whether you’re moving materials, storing bulk goods, or managing production flow, our CWB-certified fabrication helps improve performance, reduce downtime, and extend equipment life.
Improve Material Handling with Reliable Steel
Material handling is a key part of daily operations. Without the right equipment, delays happen, costs increase, and safety risks grow. That’s why we focus on durable, long-lasting solutions that work in real-world conditions.
- Custom Bins: Designed for bulk storage, our bins handle sawdust, wood chips, and metal scrap. As a result, they reduce wear and help maintain efficiency.
- Chutes and Conveyors: These keep materials moving through your process. To support this, we use abrasion-resistant steel for long-term performance.
- Hoppers: Built to handle vibration and impact, our hoppers improve loading accuracy. In turn, this reduces material loss and equipment strain.
In every case, we custom-fit each component to your setup. Therefore, you get smoother installation, easier integration, and less downtime.
Case Study: Helping a Forestry Plant Work Smarter
Recently, a major forestry facility was struggling with equipment breakdowns. Their material handling systems couldn’t keep up with daily production. Because of this, they needed stronger, more reliable steel solutions.
Here’s how we helped:
- First, we used abrasion-resistant steel to prevent early wear.
- Next, we designed parts to fit their current systems—avoiding the need for major retrofits.
- Finally, our team ensured every weld met CWB standards for strength and safety.
As a result, the plant saw better material flow, fewer repairs, and improved efficiency.
Why CWB Certification Matters
In demanding industries, not all welding is equal. That’s why we meet strict CWB (Canadian Welding Bureau) standards on every project.
- For one, certified welds mean your steel holds up under pressure.
- Additionally, high-quality materials prevent damage from vibration, impact, and long-term use.
- Most importantly, our process ensures your equipment stays reliable and safe.
Altogether, these standards lead to better results, on site and over time.
