Complete Industrial Services, One Reliable Partner
From first-time installations to emergency breakdown response, Horizon Industrial covers every stage of your conveyor system’s life. Each service below links to a dedicated page with full details, equipment specifications, and pricing guidance.
Conveyor System Installation
We install belt conveyors, roller conveyors, chain-driven lines, overhead systems, and modular sortation networks. Every installation starts with a site assessment, load and layout analysis, and a fixed-price project plan. Then we build to spec, on schedule.
Conveyor Maintenance Services
Unplanned downtime costs Alberta facilities $5,000, $15,000 per hour. Our preventive maintenance programmes inspect belting, pulleys, rollers, drives, and controls on a fixed schedule, so breakdowns happen on paper, not on your production floor.
Conveyor System Repair
Belt tears, pulley failures, roller seizures, drive malfunctions, control faults. Our Red Seal millwrights diagnose and fix the problem fast, with emergency response for Calgary-area facilities.
Conveyor Belt Services
We supply and install heavy duty rubber belting, food-grade PVC, lightweight modular plastic, and bulk material belting. Vulcanised splicing, mechanical fasteners, belt tracking adjustments, and full replacements, done properly, so it lasts.
What Makes Horizon Industrial Different?
There are dozens of contractors who will show up with a wrench. Horizon Industrial is one of a small number in Western Canada that combines Red Seal millwright certification, PMP-certified project management, and a dedicated conveyor specialisation. Here is what that means in practice.
What conveyor installation costs
What does conveyor installation cost? A basic in-plant belt or roller conveyor installation runs $15,000, $60,000. A full sortation system for a distribution centre typically ranges from $150,000, $750,000 depending on throughput, layout complexity, and controls integration. We provide fixed-price quotes after a site assessment, no surprises mid-project.
How long installation takes
How long does installation take? A single-line belt or roller conveyor installation takes 3, 10 days for a crew of two. A multi-zone sortation system takes 4, 12 weeks. We schedule all work around your production calendar, into the windows that suit facilities which cannot afford production stops.
Conveyor types we install
What conveyor types do you install? Belt conveyors, motorised roller conveyors, chain conveyors, overhead power-and-free systems, screw and auger conveyors for bulk materials, vibrating conveyors for aggregate and grain, and automated sortation systems including cross-belt and sliding-shoe sorters. We work with all major Canadian and North American manufacturers.
Servicing equipment we did not install
Do you service equipment you didn’t install? Yes, and it is the majority of our repair and maintenance work. We take over systems installed by others every week.
Working in food processing facilities
Do you work in food processing facilities? Yes. We install and maintain food-grade and sanitary conveyor systems built to CFIA and HACCP standards. Our team understands washdown requirements, material restrictions, and the documentation needs of food and beverage processing environments.
Our service area
What is your service area? Our primary area covers all of Alberta: Calgary, Edmonton, Red Deer, Lethbridge, Fort McMurray, and Grande Prairie. We also complete projects in BC and Saskatchewan. For remote northern Alberta sites, we coordinate fly-in/drive-out crew logistics at no extra complexity to you.

About Horizon Industrial Services
Horizon Industrial was founded in Airdrie, Alberta in 2020 as a millwright shop, and that is still what we are. Today our crews work across Alberta, Saskatchewan and BC on machinery installation, precision alignment, mechanical maintenance, shutdowns, rigging and plant relocations.
Our crews hold Red Seal Millwright certifications. Our project leads are PMP-certified. We are Avetta-certified and carry full WCB coverage in Alberta, BC, and Saskatchewan.
Material handling is where our millwrights have gone deepest, and it is what we are best known for. That means our crews have seen your problem before, whether it is a seized gearbox, a machine that has to move over a weekend, or a full sortation build.
