FABTECH Canada 2026

The agent for the fabrication trade.

Tell it the job. It finds the right people, the right materials, and the right code clause.

The Tailor

Welders & inspectors

Ticketed welders, fitters, and CWIs, with certifications verified at the source.

Equipment & consumables

Machines, wire, gas, and tooling. New, used, or sourced at market.

Codes & standards

Navigates CWB and AWS clauses, then routes anything safety-critical to a named human.

Subcontract capacity

Overflow work placed with shops that have the hours.

Used equipment

Press brakes, lasers, and welders changing hands, fit to your floor and your budget.

Courses & certifications

The shortest path from where you weld to where you want to.

Jobs & workforce

Open positions and available hands, matched both ways.

Measure, then fit.

Measure

The Tailor asks before it answers. Process, material, certification, region, volume. The same questions a good estimator would ask.

Fit

It matches from a catalog of shops, people, equipment, and knowledge. Verified where it counts.

Alter

Wrong fit? Say so. The catalog learns the correction and the next answer comes back sharper.

For shops: a business developer on retainer.

You're running a shop, not a marketing agency. Once a month the Tailor checks in. It updates your listing, surfaces buyers in your region, and flags the RFQs worth your hours.

For less than the cost of a part-time hire.

An agent serves the asker, not the highest bidder.

Sponsored placements are labeled, always. Certifications are checked at the source, not taken on faith.

Claim your listing.

Most fabrication businesses are already in the catalog, seeded from public data. Claim yours, correct it, and the Tailor starts working for you.
