Georgian College Students and Members of the Marine Club Visit Heddle Shipyards
It is no secret that both the shipping and ship repair industry in Canada face an uphill battle when it comes to attracting skilled men and women to our industry
Where
Water Meets
Mettle
Heddle Shipyards operates the largest number of shipyards and dry docks in Canada. We have been in continuous operation since 1987 and we are expanding.
Mettle (met·tle) is defined in the dictionary as “the ability to meet a challenge or persevere under demanding circumstances; determination or resolve.” What we do is not easy, but we employ a crew of hard-working men and women that have the mettle to do what needs to be done to solve our clients’ challenges.
Heddle Shipyards is WHERE WATER MEETS METTLE.
Health and Safety
Safety is Heddle Shipyards’ most important project every day.
Our corporate values reflect the importance of our employees’ safety and their wellbeing: Everyone goes home to their families at the end of their shift – EVERYONE GOES HOME. Period.
Heddle Marine has offered timely, efficient and unique solutions for McAsphalt Marine over the last two decades.
