Chain & Rigging to Sponsor CRC Canada

Alberta, Canada-based Continental Chain & Rigging has signed up as associate sponsor for Maximum Capacity Media's (MCM) Crane & Rigging Conference (CRC) Canada, which will take place Oct. 12-13, 2011 at the Fantasyland Hotel, Alberta.

Continental Chain & Rigging services the Western Canadian region through an established distributorship and customer partnerships. Its 40,000 square-foot facility includes a full manufacturing plant and certification division complimented by inspection and training services.

"This is an opportunity of a lifetime," said Allan Taschuk, vice president of corporate services, Continental Chain & Rigging. "We feel it is important to participate in this conference. As the first of its kind in Canada, we feel that we can showcase our products and services to many companies and individuals in the crane and rigging industry."

Whether you work with mobile or overhead cranes, CRC Canada will provide opportunities to improve the management of crane operations before, during, and after the lift. Fleet and facilities managers, safety leaders, operators and riggers will participate in sessions that will help you: 

• apply new regulations
• evaluate and safely prepare the work environment
• hone your inspection skills
• manage and maintain your equipment
• learn from colleagues and competitors.

Gathering crane users from British Columbia, Saskatchewan as well as the North West Territories’ diamond mines, CRC Canada will address delegates preparing for major growth in the oil, gas and mining sectors over the next 10 years. MCM will partner with All Canadian Training Institute Inc. (ACTi) and KOLO Holdings Inc. to deliver the highest quality content for the local audience.

In addition to the educational sessions, this two-day exposition allows suppliers of rigging gear, training services, software products, and other crane-related components and accessories to show their latest products and services.

CRC Canada is produced by Maximum Capacity Media, publishers of Crane Hot Line, Industrial Lift and Hoist, and Lift and Access magazines. MCM will also host Reach Expo 2011 along with CRC and Industrial Crane & Hoist Conference in Houston, July 19-20. For information about the Houston event, go to www.reachexpo2011.com.
