At Canado-Nacan Équipements, we offer effective solutions for loading dock energy losses. We are also a benchmark in plant safety and environmental control. Our goal? To help you reduce your annual costs. Our analysis service gives us an accurate picture of your situation. So we can offer you cost-effective solutions that are perfectly tailored to your situation. Let’s take stock.

Security Analysis

Today, more and more companies are adopting the “just-in-time” concept. They avoid excessive inventory, which increases the risk of loss. They manufacture or order products according to customer demand. Hence the name “just in time”. This requires precise synchronization throughout the production chain. So it’s important that the loading dock works properly to avoid delays.

A poorly equipped loading dock can also cause accidents that damage goods. We perform a thorough analysis of your facility to identify any issues that need to be addressed. We will then recommend appropriate solutions.

Energy Analysis

Energy loss is an additional cost in the operation of your dock or facility. For example, an air leak means you have to invest in high performance heating equipment in the winter. Similarly, you may need air conditioning in the summer. The annual cost of environmental control can run into thousands of dollars.

That’s when we perform a site analysis to determine your energy solution needs. Here’s how it works:

• We use proprietary technical assessment tools;
• We use proven methodologies such as those of the Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers, Inc. or the American Society of Heating Engineers;
• We use real-world information. This includes local weather data, door openings, and trailer traffic.

What’s a needs assessment?

We offer a wide range of security and environmental control solutions. Which one should you choose? The results of your needs assessment will give you an accurate answer to that question. So you only invest in the solutions you need. Most importantly, this service helps you avoid unnecessary spending. We also show you exactly how much you can save by investing in the right equipment.

For example, we can determine:

• The amount of energy lost through openings;
• The costs associated with these losses;
• The amount you could save by choosing solutions such as gaskets.
