A full line of cold-formed steel products
We make studs, track, roof deck and prefabricated panels: the parts that frame walls, floors and roofs. All of it is rolled and engineered in Canada.
Inside the plant
Our Operations Manager walks the line
Filmed on the floor in Barrie, walking the framing line while it runs.
The line
Seven stations on one floor
Steel arrives as coil and leaves as finished panels. Every station below was filmed on our floor in Barrie.

Questions
Common questions about cold-formed steel
Yes. Cold-formed steel is fire-resistant (retains about 50% strength even at 593C / 1,100F), mold- and termite-proof, flood-resistant, dimensionally stable and 100% recyclable.
Traditional construction: approx. $1,056,000 and 8-10 months for framing. EBS Global system: approx. $960,000 and 2-3 months for framing. That's a 10% cost saving and a time saving of 5-7 months just on the structural shell.
EBS Global buildings are engineered to withstand winds up to 180 mph (290 km/h) and are not affected by flood water like wood.
