Not Just Selling Parts But Solving Your Design Challenges
Why Engineers Need More Than Just Parts
Introduction
When you think of a parts supplier, you probably imagine a quick transaction: order, ship, done. At igus Canada, that’s not how we operate. Our mission is bigger than selling components. It’s about solving problems; real engineering challenges that impact performance, reliability, and cost.

Experience That Counts
One of the most rewarding moments this year? Watching our team guide students through an application challenge. They started skeptical. Then they saw the results. One highlight of that experience was suggesting an online tool that provided the same results as the team lead’s calculations after two days of work.
That’s the power of experience, and we have plenty of it. Our Canadian team brings over 100 years of combined expertise to the table. We also have local representatives across Canada. From Vancouver Island to Prince Edward Island, we’re here to share that knowledge.
Why We’re Different
Our goal isn’t to sell you a part and walk away. It’s to help you find the most cost-effective solution for your application. If we don’t have the right answer, we’ll tell you. When designing parts in, we act more like technical specialists than salespeople. That means you get advice grounded in engineering principles, not just a catalogue number.
Orange Services: Practical Support When You Need It
Designing and selecting components is only part of the equation. Installation and long-term reliability matter just as much. That’s why we offer Orange Services. It’s set of practical support options that include onsite installation assistance, maintenance inspections, engineering consultations, and training.
Our field service technicians and inspectors work to improve the performance of e-chain® cable carrier systems in demanding environments. Whether you’re dealing with automotive production lines, port and terminal cranes, indoor EOT cranes, or oil rigs, Orange Services provide continuity and confidence. It’s about making sure your application runs as intended, not just on day one but for years to come.
Conclusion
Parts matter. But expertise matters more. At igus Canada, we combine both to deliver solutions that work because engineering isn’t just about components. It’s about outcomes.
