“We believe in what we do. We are a com-
pany with a mission and we believe in that
mission,” Montero said. The mission alone
makesTergos rather unique in the industry.
Although green architecture has become
increasingly prevalent in recent times, Ter-
gos is one of the only companies that fo-
cuses exclusively on green architecture.
“A lot more people are doing it and that is
a good thing. Eventually everything is go-
ing to be green. Humanity doesn't have
a choice. It's not even a question of the
Earth, it's a matter of human survival,”
Montero said, adding that Europe is de-
cades ahead of Canada in this aspect. His
travels aboard have been both informative
and inspiring, and have shaped the future
direction of his company.
Although Tergos is relatively young, Mon-
tero has big plans. His vision is to expand
into Montreal, a city that already employs
Tergos’ services often. Expanding east and
west from Quebec City and even down
south to New England is on the table for
Montero.
“We are a climate-based company,” he
explained. “Our specialties in green archi-
tecture centre on northern climates, not
deserts and dry areas. I'm looking forward
to expanding worldwide in those same cli-
mates.”
