Properties of our products
Our goal is to develop and produce parts that will help you achieve your ventilation objectives. Our products are recognized on the market for the quality of their raw material and their simplicity. Structural and airtight, they allow you to design efficient systems to save time and energy and maximize the performance of your underground projects.
Airtightness and simplicity
The Mecanicad products are equipped with male and female conical ends, which facilitate their insertion up to the end stop. Our system includes the addition of an adjustable collar to ensure the tightness of the installation.

Slide rail system
The great innovation of Mecanicad is its patented system of assembly by slides, tenons and mortises.
It allows us to deliver our products in larger quantities and to assemble them on site.
It allows you to disassemble it if necessary, to replace it, move it or have it reconditioned. It also facilitates your storage on site at all times.
Our plastics
We offer products designed in PVC and PP Copolymer. These high quality plastics are structural and resistant enough to be reused and reconditioned. They are available in 2 thicknesses: 1/8'' and 5/32'' for PVC 1/8'' and 1/4'' for Copoly.

WHY CHOOSE MECANICAD PRODUCTS?
Quality
What makes Mecanicad ventilation products different is the characteristics of our plastics. Our unique design, components and raw material make our products the most durable and versatile solution on the market. We are the only ones who can repair or recondition our ducts, and the qualities of our polymers contribute to the success of our partners.
Performance
Choosing us means opting for a high energy efficiency mining and tunneling ventilation system.
The low friction factor of our plastic allows our products to reduce gas and dust evacuation time. You’ll be back in the field faster, resulting in increased productivity in your operations.
The right choice of fan, combined with the right duct diameter, makes it possible to increase the distance covered by the air without a reinforcing fan. This reduces your energy consumption, your maintenance costs, your need for underground infrastructure, and reduces heat and noise to improve the working conditions of your teams.
Optimized transport and handling
Our ventilation ducts are delivered in a “U” shape. This innovative transport method allows us to deliver more than 700 meters of duct in a single delivery, while facilitating handling. We have several sizes of wooden packaging that can be adapted to the space you have available to bring the ducts underground.
We have also developed a robust and reusable steel packaging system. It reduces your project costs and your environmental footprint. Its design allows for storage of the ducts at the mine site and facilitates handling from the surface to the installation of the ducts underground.
