The Solution and Results
Based on Northern Dock Systems’ recommendation, Western Canada Express installed three SS701 dock shelters to:- Create a weathertight seal against inclement weather.
- Enhance employee comfort indoors by preventing cold air, rain and snow infiltration, and in turn, increasing their workplace productivity.
- Improve their energy efficiency by sealing o gaps between the trailer and the door which their existing shelters failed to do.
