In sawmills, factories, and forests »

Normex Métal supports sawmills, pulp and paper mills, and forestry companies with the fabrication, installation, and maintenance of their equipment and structures. We operate in our workshop, at your facilities, and directly at your forest work sites.

Our teams handle custom fabrication, component replacement, and repair work. Depending on your needs, we can manage the work ourselves or provide specialized personnel to support your teams, particularly during scheduled shutdowns.

For the handling and transfer of materials

Conveyors

We manufacture, install, and repair conveyors and their components for sawmills and pulp and paper mills. Our work covers the handling of wood, chips, process materials, and production residues.

We handle new installations, the replacement of worn sections, and the modification of existing systems. Our manufacturing process takes into account dimensions, connection points, and installation sequencing to prepare for the work prior to on-site installation.

Structures adapted to your facilities

Steel structures

Normex Métal manufactures and installs steel structures and equipment supports for forestry sector facilities. We carry out new construction projects as well as modifications to existing structures, in accordance with project drawings and specifications.

Shop preparation takes into account assembly details, access requirements, and installation conditions. Delivery and installation are coordinated with your team, factoring in lifting equipment, other scheduled work, and plant operations.

Custom manufacturing

Step by step

» 01

Workshop fabrication

Manufacturing of tanks, steel structures, and custom parts and components. We work from your blueprints or assist with project preparation, depending on the requirements of the assignment.

» 02

In-process checks

The inspections specified in the work order accompany the manufacturing process. They allow the work to be verified against the requirements of the drawings and specifications before proceeding to the next stages of production.

» 03

Delivery preparation

Parts and assemblies are prepared with transport, handling, and installation sequence requirements in mind. Delivery is coordinated with site needs.

» 04

On-site installation

When installation is included in the scope of work, our teams carry out the scheduled tasks in coordination with on-site personnel. Preparation takes into account access points, existing equipment, and the agreed-upon timeframe for the work.

Teams that travel to your workplace

Forest worksite operations

Our teams work directly at forestry sites to carry out welding, repair, and installation tasks. Operations are planned based on the specific equipment involved, the work required, and site access conditions.

Work planning takes into account the remote location and available on-site resources. Parts suitable for workshop fabrication are prepared prior to deployment, and requirements regarding personnel, tools, and handling equipment are finalized with your managers.

Supports for your teams

Skilled workforce

We provide welders and specialized workers to support your teams in sawmills, pulp and paper mills, or forestry operations. This support can cover installation, maintenance, and repair work, as well as needs related to scheduled shutdowns.

The required skills, tasks, duration, and terms of the assignment are determined in consultation with you. The assigned personnel integrate into your work operations and site coordination.

For your production and construction site equipment

Maintenance and repair

Normex Métal performs maintenance, refurbishment, and component replacement for sawmills, pulp and paper mills, and forestry equipment. Work can be carried out either in our workshop or directly at your facilities.

We plan the work based on the equipment’s condition, operating environment, and technical requirements. Part manufacturing and on-site work are coordinated with your teams to accommodate your scheduled shutdowns and production constraints.

Planned on-site work

The work to be performed, replacement parts, and necessary resources are specified prior to the project. Workshop planning is coordinated with the sequence of plant operations and the timeframe available for execution.

Component repair and replacement

We repair or replace the items covered by the project, including conveyor components, supports, and welded assemblies. The work takes into account observed wear, materials, and operating conditions.

Centralized coordination

A dedicated manager oversees your project and coordinates communication between your team, our workshop, and the personnel on site. Requirements, responsibilities, and project stages are defined in consultation with you.
