ounded in 1973, SBB is a world leader in the design
and manufacturing of Emergency Restoration Systems
(ERS), wind measurement towers and other structures
Fmade of aluminum extrusions. Proudly located
in Blainville, Quebec, SBB is rooted in steel and aluminium
manufacturing, having turned its focus to aluminum—and the
manufacturing and design efficiencies it affords the transportation
sector, specifically—in 2015.
“Everyone is looking for gains in terms of weight—its all about
efficiency, the lighter you get the more efficient you become,” says
SBB General Manager, Patrick Gharzani. “That’s the track we are
on right now.”
SBB’s strong in-house design team has produced world-class
products, notably in the ERS, or Emergency Restoration Systems,
market. Power supply lines provide more than communication,
heat, and light. In many ways, they are also the source of medical
resources, political and social equilibrium, and a vital economic
engine. In the event that a power source is fallen, time is of the
essence to restore working order.
