Refractory Services
A Growing Legacy With drawers full of various recognitions that the company has received over the years , it would be easy for Western Refractory Services to rest on its laurels . However , the company is constantly improving . The company recently doubled the size of its rigging fleet and added two more units to its shotcreting fleet .
“ We ’ re still looking at [ modernizing ] some of our equipment and increasing the size of our fleet ,” Dragon said . “ We ’ re turning over old equipment and making sure that we have the state-of-the-art equipment .”
With the most modern technology and one of the most comprehensive lists of service offerings in Western Canada , it ’ s not difficult to see how Western Refractory Services made it to the 30- year mark .
“[ It ’ s taken ] long hours , hard work and loyalty from our customers ,” Dragon said . “ The effort from all our staff has been a big part of that .”
