With our central location in Castlegar, BC, we are ideally situated to serve not only our local community but also areas throughout BC and Alberta.

ECONOMY
We really care about our local community and the growing industries within the Kootenay Region. As we continue to grow and expand our operations, we will always offer jobs to our fellow locals to ensure the prosperity of the Kootenay workforce. Our dedication to the local economy goes beyond just job creation. We actively seek partnerships with local businesses and suppliers, ensuring that the economic benefits of our operations are shared within the community. Our local roots allow your investment to have a direct and positive impact on neighbouring communities, which makes us a partner you can not only trust, but feel good about choosing.
EXPERIENCE
Our team has combined experience of 25+ years within the mining, forest product, energy, and oil & gas industries, which gives us the ability to take on projects of any scale and complexity. Our expertise includes a wide range of services including metal recycling, decommissioning, dismantlement, demolition, waste management, civil earthworks and environmental contracting.
ENVIRONMENT
We believe that environmentally responsible practices are not just a choice, but a necessity. With our extensive experience in the mining, forest, energy, and oil & gas industries, we have witnessed firsthand the impact that unsustainable practices can have on the environment. That’s why we have made it our mission to prioritize sustainability in all aspects of our operations. We always strive to find innovative solutions that minimize our footprint and promote a circular economy. At our core, we are driven by a deep sense of responsibility, which is why we will always choose the longer, more responsible route instead of taking shortcuts.

Local Industrial Partners are proud to be a Certified Aboriginal Business, which means that our business is 51% owned by an Aboriginal person(s).
