Bruce Power and Kinectrics virtually celebrated the grand opening of Kinectrics’ fully operational laundry facility in Teeswater Friday.
Kinestrics says their 40,000 square-foot facility now launders personal protective equipment (PPE) from Bruce Power. The company says Kinectrics employs more than 40 people at its Teeswater location with potential to increase employment over the next few years.
“We are thrilled to see this facility up and running and fully operational,” said David Harris, Kinectrics’ President and CEO. “This community provides an outstanding platform to grow our business both with Bruce Power and our clients worldwide. We look forward to providing long-term employment for the next generation of workers as we support world-class nuclear operators like Bruce Power.”
“Kinectrics has made a significant investment in our regional economy expanding its capabilities within the Clean Energy Frontier,” said Mike Rencheck, President and CEO of Bruce Power. “Work previously performed outside of our country is now being done here at home, creating jobs and careers for Canadians. Our technology innovation creates economic benefits that will strengthen our rural areas, communities, and industry. As a founding member of the Nuclear Innovation Institute, Kinectrics is establishing itself as a leader in clean nuclear energy technology.”
Kinectrics designed and constructed the facility in 2019 and have engineered it to have the lowest impact on the environment and local utilities with laundry water recycling systems engineered to recycle up to 80-90 per cent of all laundry water.
