Established in 1970, General Grinding Limited is a locally owned and operated machine shop incorporated in 1977. Starting with a surface grinder (blanchard), the company began by sharpening industrial knives, slitters, shears, trimmers and dies for the pulp and paper, printing and metal manufacturing industries. With the addition of drills, lathes, grinders, milling, punching, shearing and welding equipment, the company expanded into sales, repairs and the manufacture of various components that can be difficult
to find or not readily available.

The ability to manufacture an assortment of parts or components according to samples, drawings and specifications has greatly diversified our work and our client base. From basic repairs and maintenance to design and manufacturing, the company has produced a variety of structures, tools, machines and prototypes as per customer's needs and specifications. Shafts, sprockets, gears, pulleys, sheaves, bearing journals, end caps, reducers, housings, spiders, pumps, pipes, motors, blowers, spindles, flywheels, manifolds, structural and supporting brackets, anchors, posts, open partitions for machine guards, windows, doors and an assortment of safety applications, railings
and tracks can be repaired, modified and custom made to meet your requirements. Materials
include various grades of steel, stainless, cast iron, brass, bronze, aluminium, magnesium and different plastics.

Serving commercial and industrial sectors, General Grinding Limited can accommodate the
