We live in an incredible country. From coast to coast, we are one of the largest countries in the world. This country is full of opportunity, adventure, and industry. Here’s why insulation is important all across Canada:
Great White North
The rest of the world likes to lump all of Canada into the same frozen snowball. But if you can think back to your grade 5 social studies class, you may remember that Canada is comprised of five main regions. From the Atlantic to Pacific, we span over 6,000 km across. That’s a lot of territory! What that means for industries is that each region has its own unique geography and climate. Here in Calgary we have to battle everything from blizzards to tornados. Our neighbours to the west can experience wildfires and typhoons. Nowhere in Canada is safe from extreme weather, and our facilities need to be built to prosper under all those conditions. Likewise, insulation must be tailored to the specific climate to be effective.
Rich in Diversity
The Canadian economy boasts an incredibly diverse set of industries. Here in Alberta we thrive on oil and gas, but other provinces have different niches to fill. For example, British Columbia is known for their forestry and Manitoba’s agricultural sector is booming. Each of these industries requires facilities built to accommodate their products and processes. Insulation for an oil refinery is going to look very different than it would in a dairy farm. In either application, however, insulation is key to the success of the facility and must be considered carefully.
Setting Up for Success
Regardless of climate or industry, business owners want to know that they have the best chance at success. Insulation reduces emissions and creates a more efficient facility. Efficiency always equals lower operating costs, as the energy you expel will primarily be going right back into your processes. Furthermore, proper insulation creates a better work environment for your people. That is something every Canadian deserves!
