Our Canadian Locations and Their Versatile Capabilities
Amongst our many manufacturing and distribution locations, we have two ISO 9001:2015 certified Canadian plants that help serve various Canadian industries from coast to coast.
Our flagship location in Perth, which originally was founded to manufacture fine diameter red metal wire used in the weaving of fourdrinier fabric for the paper industry, today handles our Canadian Welding Wire and Fine Wire manufacturing. With over 50 employees, this location has the ability to take on large and precise orders. As Canada’s only wire drawing and annealing company, and sole manufacturer of Stainless and Nickel alloy Welding Wire, our Perth, Ontario plant has capabilities you can’t find anywhere else.
CWI’s second Canadian location in Calgary, Alberta was opened for distribution in 2018. Quickly, this plant has expanded into a manufacturing facility, specializing in our Tech-Mesh™ product line. The Knitted Wire Mesh and Custom Demister Pads manufactured in Calgary serve industries from Oil & Gas to Brewing & Distilling and more.
