Our Key Success Factors

In June 1989, the company started significant changes in operations to increase productivity and improve quality. Since then, Gilfab / ASI has outperformed its competition because of these factors:

· Use of Submerge Arc Welding (SAW);
· Mechanisation of welding operations;
· Centralisation of our operations and acquisition of a new 25,000 sq. ft. plant;
· Implementation of a continuous improvement process for all activities;
· Accreditation by ASME standard, section VIII, division I, for pressurised vessels (U, H, S and UM stamps);
· Accreditation of all our products by ULC or UL (Underwriters Laboratories Standard) for petroleum products;
· Certification of the quality assurance program developed with ISO 9001-94 standards.

Because of these factors, ASI has had the necessary technical, financial and human resources to become the leader of tank manufacturing in Eastern Canada.
