Serving the needs of your plant. 

ROOFING:
The maintenance of the roofing membrane prevents water entry as well as the potential escalating costs from damage to the substrate. Our company installs all types of roofing from sheet products to high performance urethanes and epoxies. Our company has performed many assessments, preventative maintenance programs and long term budgeting in plants across Canada.

WATERPROOFING:
Water entry from the base of the plant, walls, windows or any other area causes both unsafe conditions and degradation of the interior surfaces.  Our company performs all types of waterproofing to walls, windows, basements, bases, pavement, concrete and steel surfaces, walkways etc. This waterproofing includes both interior and exterior application. Negative side waterproofing (inside) is especially challenging. Our company has had considerable success in this area.  The moisture that is present in the basements presents both a safety hazard from slipping and a food safety concern. In addition, substrate damage to concrete and steel will escalate the cost of repair if left unattended. Our company installs all types of coatings, injections, cementatious products.

CONCRETE RESTORATION:
The vast amount of concrete that is a part of the construction of your plant requires constant maintenance whether through coating or restoration of the concrete substrate. We use a wide variety of high performance concrete, epoxy and polyurethane products to ensure long lasting solutions. 

PRESSURE WASHING / GENERAL SITE MAINTENANCE:
The overall cleanliness, appearance and order of the plant affects both the longevity as well as the community optics and employee pride of place. We provide general site maintenance through rope access pressure washing to walls, removal of organic and inorganic debris anywhere in or around the plant which may cause damage or is of safety concern. Pressure washing can also reveal substrate damage which, if repaired, can prevent escalating costs in the future.

BIRD MITIGATION:
Franklin Industrial has formed an alliance with a recognized expert in industrial bird mitigation. This individual has designed and installed bird mitigation systems throughout North America, specifically in large industrial settings.

Bird mitigation in an industrial setting requires knowledge and experience to be effective. Without the correct design, the installation of netting, bird spikes and other equipment it is ineffective. Bird droppings are becoming increasingly recognized as a health hazard as well as a food safety concern. Some large plants in Europe require the complete removal of bird droppings before work can be performed or the plant put into production in many cases.

ROPE ACCESS WORK:
Using rope, we can access virtually any part of the walls or structure of the plant giving us the ability to complete a full inspection through non-destructive testing (NDT), and benchmark your plant. In addition to inspection, we provide full installation services. These include: repair of spalling concrete and degraded metal, waterproofing and sealing holes, cracks, penetrations, cleaning (pressure washing), painting, removals and installations. If required, we can perform inspections under the direction of engineers. The cost of rope access is often considerably less than scaffold set up or boom lift. In fact, there are some areas of the plant where the only way to access areas requiring maintenance is through rope. Difficult to access maintenance or inspection requirements are accessible through this service. Our team is highly trained, safe and accustomed to the heavy industrial environment. All training is under IRATA and SPRATT.

CONFINED SPACE:
Our team is fully trained in Confined Space Entry and IDLH Rescue. allowing us to inspect, do repairs and, if necessary, rescue in confined spaces, while on supplied air.
