Three product lines

One shop, three specialties

Every line runs on the same CNC platform and the same in-house engineering — so a packaging insert and a 20-foot film column get the same tolerance discipline.

Credited work on sets across Ontario

Productions come to us when a set piece has to look like carved stone, weigh almost nothing, and be on a truck tomorrow morning. We carve, coat, hard-shell and finish in-house.

  • Sculpted rock work, columns and architectural ruins
  • Breakaway and stunt-safe props
  • Hard-coated, paint-ready surfaces
  • Rush turnarounds for shooting schedules
