Time for a New Location
When Diesel R decided to move to a new location in Lethbridge Alberta, right alongside the main highway, they knew they wanted an eye-catching exterior. Luckily, they didn’t have to look far, as Forma Steel’s Lethbridge office and warehouse was just down the block.

Eye-Catching Expand Modular
Chinook Erectors were the contractors that clad the entire front of the building using our Expand Modular Systems panels. These large-scale panels use a floating clip system, ideal for thermal expansion and contraction. Not only are they visually striking, even from a far distance, but the uncomplicated installation was of great importance for Chinook Erectors.

Contrasting Colours to Make An Impact
Black panels running along the sides of the building were the first to be installed in early June 2025. Then came the real challenge, a large rectangular archway. They used our Bright Red EMS panels to provide a colourful contrast from the black siding. Because of the on-site adaptability of our EMS panels, Chinook was able to custom bend the sides of the panels to create a smooth transition where no sharp corners or exposed cuts are to be seen.

Built to Last – Built to Impress!
In September 2025 the project was completed. Diesel R will surely be impressed, as will their customers, with the durable and aesthetically stunning EMS panel system used for the exterior of their new building.
