Hooper Welding Enterprises Ltd, Hamilton, ON

Hooper Engineered Vessels International (HEVI) was founded on the belief that customers need greater value for the investments they make in their projects. Customers have the desire to see pressure vessels and process equipment support more volume and more demanding process conditions. To support this, the equipment must get larger, heavier and more complex to support the construction of heavier custom steel fabrications. The equipment is extremely laborious to build and the facilities need to be suitable. The HEVI facility fulfils these requirements by having an increased door size, a longer crane height and a heavier crane capacity while providing immediate access to a waterway.
