Enerscan Engineering Incorporated was incorporated in 1981.   Since then the company has been involved in a number of engineering ventures including consulting and study of manufacturing related issues.  An interest in line hardware and line tools developed following involvement in a project that identified the significant advances in plastics and composite materials over the last two decades.   This identified many opportunities for the use of plastics and composites to replace traditional materials such as metals.  The benefits can be numerous, but include higher strengths and durability, weight, electrical and heat conductivity.   Further benefits can result from more modern design. 

Enerscan has a variety of products under development at present, most of which are following a rigid and thorough design - prototype - test - redesign system led by experienced, seasoned engineers.  The opinions and participation of the manufacturers of the resins are an integral part of the development process, to ensure the highest standards are met for the life of the product under consideration.  All applicable standards (such as CSA, ANSI and others) as well as those imposed by current and prospective purchasers are established as fundamental design criteria, and in most cases a further safety factor is incorporated.  Testing is routinely performed by independent organizations such as the Nova Scotia Research Foundation Corporation, which is well versed in the type of testing required for these products.

Enerscan also undertakes product development on a custom and contract basis.
