History

1985 - 2015

 

Zanron Fabrication & Machine Co. Ltd was created to serve the local industrial plants.

 

Over the past 30 years Zanron grew from a small crew of 3 -4 employees to a steady workforce of 12 employess providing local fabrication and machining support to the local smelter and pulp and paper mill. In particular, Zanron provided spare parts and on-going consumables / repairs required by the smelter and mill.

 

During the Kitimat Modernization Project, Zanron was involved in the fabrication and painting of a variety of structural steel projects including pedestrian walkways, guarding, conveyor supports, anchor bolts etc.

2015 - 2023

 

Zanron Fabrication & Machine Co. Ltd was rebranded as Zanron Mechanical Services to reflect the changing nature of the business.

 

In 2015, Zanron came under new management with a new focus to grow and develop the business into a full service mechanical contractor. Over the past few years, the office has been renovated and extended, the fabrication shop renovated, new sandblasting and painting facilities built and a variety of new equipment purchased.

 

We have grown the business to an average of 50 - 100 employees working throughout the year to deliver turnkey projects and increase our support of the new Rio Tinto Kitimat smelter and LNG Canada project.
