Who We Serve
Western Canada’s plants, distribution centres and grain facilities run on machinery, and Horizon Industrial keeps it running. Our Red Seal millwrights install, align, maintain and repair plant machinery, rotating equipment and the belt, roller, chain, overhead and sortation conveyor systems that move product between it, for manufacturers, food processors, parcel and fulfilment operations and bulk material handlers across Alberta, Saskatchewan and BC. Red Seal certified. Emergency response.

Leading Tech Integration Ready
While most western Canadian MHS installers stick to traditional methods, Horizon is positioned to lead on IoT, robotics, and automation, the technologies shaping the future of material handling.
The Industries We Keep Moving
From agriculture and grain handling to manufacturing, distribution, parcel and food processing, our Red Seal millwrights install, align and maintain the machinery and material handling systems Western Canada’s most demanding facilities run on.
Grain Handling & Seasonal Peaks
Millwright work for grain handling and agricultural processing: bin and cleaner installs, elevators, drives and conveying equipment, scheduled around the seasonal peak rather than through it.
Plant Machinery & Production Uptime
Pumps, motors, gearboxes, rotating equipment and production machinery installed, aligned and maintained, along with the conveyors that tie the line together.
High-Speed Sortation
Install, align and maintain the high-speed sortation lines that move your parcel volume through peak, with the mechanical work planned into your operating window.
High-Throughput Fulfilment
Sortation and conveyor work sequenced around your fulfilment schedule, with installs and relocations planned so the floor keeps running.
Sanitary Washdown Environments
Machinery and conveying equipment for food and beverage plants, built for washdown and corrosion environments and for the sanitation standards the line has to hold.
Full-System Support
The full range of material handling and conveyor systems installed, aligned and maintained, from a single transfer to a whole plant.
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 diagnose and service equipment from Hytrol, Ashland Conveyor, Intelligroup, Rapistan, TGW, and custom fabricated systems. Bring us the make and model, or let us assess on-site.
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.
