When critical infrastructure depends on the integrity of every weld, fabrication quality is not optional. It is the foundation of project success.

At CanWest Mechanical, we provide pipe fabrication, pressure piping fabrication, structural steel fabrication, and specialty welding services for industrial, marine, energy, municipal, institutional, and commercial clients throughout Western Canada.

From pressure piping systems and fabricated pipe spools to structural steel supports and custom assemblies, our fabrication team delivers quality workmanship backed by industry-leading certifications, qualified tradespeople, and rigorous quality control processes.

Technical Safety BC Licensed Pressure Piping Fabrication Contractor

CanWest Mechanical is an A Licensed Contractor with Technical Safety BC, authorized to perform work involving pressure piping systems and pressure vessels.

This licensing demonstrates our commitment to maintaining qualified personnel, registered welding procedures, documented quality control systems, and strict compliance with provincial regulations and industry codes.

Whether fabricating process piping for industrial facilities, mechanical systems for commercial buildings, or pressure piping for energy and municipal infrastructure, every project is completed under a quality program designed to meet the highest standards of workmanship and compliance.

Red Seal Steamfitters and Class A Pressure Welders

The quality of any fabrication project begins with the people performing the work.

CanWest employs experienced Red Seal Steamfitters and Class A Pressure Welders with extensive experience in industrial pipe fabrication, pressure piping systems, and structural steel construction.

Our tradespeople understand the importance of proper fit-up, welding procedures, material traceability, inspection requirements, and quality documentation. This expertise allows us to deliver fabricated systems that perform reliably in demanding operating environments.

ASME, DNV, Lloyd’s and CWB Qualified Welding Procedures

CanWest maintains an extensive library of welding procedures developed and qualified to internationally recognized standards, including:

• ASME Section IX
• DNV
• Lloyd’s Register
• Canadian Welding Bureau (CWB)

These qualified welding procedures support projects across a wide range of industries including oil and gas, shipbuilding, power generation, pulp and paper, water treatment, and industrial manufacturing.

Our ability to weld a diverse range of materials while maintaining strict code compliance provides clients with confidence that fabricated components meet both regulatory and project-specific requirements.

CWB Certified Structural Steel Fabrication Shop

In addition to pressure piping fabrication, CanWest operates a CWB Division 2 Certified Structural Steel Fabrication Shop.

Our structural steel fabrication capabilities include:

• Pipe racks
• Structural steel supports
• Equipment platforms
• Access structures
• Mechanical equipment skids
• Custom fabricated steel assemblies

By combining structural steel fabrication and pipe fabrication under one roof, CanWest improves coordination, shortens project schedules, and provides clients with a single source for fabrication services.

Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, Copper Nickel and Chrome Moly Fabrication

CanWest routinely fabricates piping systems and steel components using a wide variety of materials, including:

• Carbon Steel
• Stainless Steel
• Copper Nickel
• Chrome Moly Alloys

These materials are commonly used in industrial process facilities, marine applications, shipbuilding projects, water and wastewater treatment plants, power generation stations, and oil and gas facilities.

Our fabrication team understands the unique welding, fabrication, inspection, and handling requirements associated with each material type, ensuring long-term performance and reliability.

Dedicated Stainless Steel Fabrication Shop

Maintaining the corrosion resistance of stainless steel materials requires specialized fabrication practices.

To ensure the highest quality standards, CanWest operates a dedicated stainless steel fabrication shop that is physically separated from carbon steel fabrication activities. This helps prevent cross-contamination that can negatively impact corrosion resistance and long-term asset performance.

In addition, we maintain a dedicated stainless steel pickling and passivation dip tank that allows fabricated stainless steel components to be properly treated following welding and fabrication.

These specialized facilities help ensure that stainless steel piping systems and components meet the quality expectations of industrial, marine, food processing, and water treatment clients.
