On  Sept. 11, KLETON Manufacturing Inc., a supplier and manufacturer of material handling and OEM solutions, inaugurated its modernized facility in Senneville, Que. The event was attended by guests and stakeholders who had the opportunity to view the company’s newly installed advanced, automated machinery, designed to help improve quality, efficiency and production capabilities. KLETON also announced a new privately funded investment exceeding $5 million in its Canadian manufacturing operations, which was used to acquire new equipment. “These investments reflect KLETON’s long-term vision, combining innovation and automation to deliver next-generation solutions for industrial and OEM customers,” said Braden Green, COO of the Tenaquip Group of Companies. “We’re not just adding equipment, we’re unlocking new possibilities for our customers. With robotics, automation, and high-performance technologies now integrated into our processes, we’re better positioned than ever to support the growing demand for Canadian-made solutions.” The upgraded facility reportedly features several systems from TRUMPF, a machine tool manufacturer. KLETON says that the new equipment also includes automated laser cutters, bending cells and punching systems capable of processing thick steel around the clock. These Industry 4.0–driven technologies allow for faster turnaround times, higher precision and expanded customization across KLETON’s product lines. “KLETON’s new manufacturing capabilities give us the flexibility to expand our product offering while maintaining the high standards our customers rely on,” said Glenn Watt, CFO of the Tenaquip Group of Companies. “From a business standpoint, this is a smart and strategic evolution that enhances our ability to deliver value at scale.” KLETON is part of the Tenaquip Group of Companies, a Canadian-owned and operated organization. The group also includes Tenaquip Limited, SCN Industrial Inc. and the Tenaquip Foundation.
