Semcan Inc.
Our company grew through several acquisitions over our 50-year history before we ultimately became known as Carmeuse Systems in 2024. These moments in our history enabled us to better meet the needs of our customers by expanding our engineering capabilities and enhancing our system offerings. One of the most significant milestones along this journey was the formation and later acquisition of Semcan Inc.
The Formation of Semcan Inc.
While our business had been designing pneumatic conveying systems and equipment since the early 1970s under the name Semco Systems Limited, the parent company’s name was changed to “Semcan Inc.” in February 2007.
In the following years, the company acquired two businesses, Stanco Projects Ltd. and the ZMI Portec Division of The Conveyor Company. These two acquisitions enhanced our capabilities by adding specialized system integrator and lime slaking systems expertise to our range of offerings. These two wholly owned subsidiaries were later amalgamated into the parent company in January 2010, which continued operating as Semcan Inc. until 2013.
The Acquisition of Semcan Inc.
Throughout the 2010s, Semcan Inc. continued to operate from its headquarters in Milton, Ontario, however the company underwent a rebranding in February 2013 to change its name to STT Enviro Corp.
Then, in 2017, the business was ultimately acquired as a wholly owned subsidiary of Carmeuse, the global lime and limestone manufacturer. With this final step, the company integrated into the Carmeuse family, and rebranded in 2024 to the name we know today, Carmeuse Systems.
Continuing to Support Semcan Customers
Over the years, Semcan built a reputation for quality and innovation, by engineering and integrating reliable and efficient bulk chemical handling systems for clients around the globe. Today, we continue that legacy as Carmeuse Systems and continue to support our former Semcan customers.
