At PRECICAD, we are committed to providing our clients with both environmental and total-quality approaches to product development. In addition, we are proud to periodically contribute our expertise and know-how to social and humanitarian projects.

SOCIAL ENGAGEMENT

PRECICAD’s team regularly contributes to social and humanitarian projects. One of our recent initiatives was to work with a team of partners to provide scientific support for the development of a new foot brace. This product was designed with streamlined production, easy adjustments and functionality in mind to give active individuals a durable brace with high energy return. This brace will be produced in emerging markets. To learn more, visit www.niagarafoot.com.

ENVIRONMENTAL

To develop according to our planet's environmental capacities !

Proud of its ISO 14001: 2015 certification, PRECICAD has adopted an environmental policy. From our activities and our services, environmental aspects are taken into account in our way of doing things.

 

PRECICAD is committed to excel in terms of environment in integrated product development services and to taking the following measures to minimize negative environmental effects:

Through its services, PRECICAD influences the design of our customers' products by applying eco-design tools, by using recyclable and recycled materials, by optimizing the weight of the product designed, resulting in a decrease in the use of raw material and a reduction in energy consumption. Our design guidelines will have positive impacts on the environment.

Our internal and R&D projects allow us to develop our expertise in the environmental field, by researching new materials and new manufacturing processes. The development of green energy vehicles also opens doors to new similar projects.

Regularly carry out internal audits of our procedures to continuously improve our environmental system, to prevent pollution and to assess our environmental performance.

Actively participate in the management of residual materials and the recovery and recycling of waste produced by our activities.

Comply with laws and regulations affecting the environment as well as other requirements applicable to our activities and our identified environmental aspects.

OUR STORY

Founded in 1993 in the new Metropolitan Quebec Technological Park, Services PRECICAD Inc. initially offers its clients numerical simulation services. Subsequently, at the request of its clients, the company adds industrial design to its service offering as well as the whole range of activities in mechanical engineering. Due to its significant growth in 2001, the company relocated to the Carrefour de la Nouvelle Économie (CNE) in downtown Quebec. This relocation allows the company to significantly increase its team of industrial designers, engineers and mechanical design technicians in order to offer its clientele integrated and innovative solutions in product development. This service offering leads to a very high recurrence of projects from its customers in different business sectors.

In the meantime, PRECICAD is implementing the ISO 9001 quality system and ISO 14001 at the environmental level. In 2008, an opportunity to develop a 100% electric vehicle came up in collaboration with Aluminerie Alouette in Sept-Îles. KARGO later became an independent company specializing in the marketing and production of neighbourhood electric vehicles. In addition to being one of the 6 partners of the Consortium Bus Électrique of the Government of Quebec, this expertise has enabled it to carry out other important mandates in this sector of activities such as an electric shuttle system for an airport in the Western Canada, a mining vehicle, etc.

Based on this vast experience developed since its foundation in 1993, PRECICAD is a key partner, towards its clients in various sectors of activity, in order to assist them in the development or optimization of their products which must meet the high demands of their market.
