CCI THERMAL STAFF PLAYING IT SAFE
Dave Dawson, special to the Packet & Times

November 13, 2009 (Originally published in The Orillia Packet & Times)

Employees at CCI Thermal Technologies were recognized yesterday as world leaders.

"You are the best heat element manufacturers in the world," CCI president Bernie Moore said to enthusiastic applause from the Orillia plant's 126 employees.

One of the reasons for the Hunter Valley Road plant's success is its stellar safety record. Moore was in Orillia yesterday to fete the employees for four years without a lost-time injury -- "a remarkable feat for a manufacturing facility," Moore said.

He told employees crowded into a lunchroom about a quarterly report he recently read by a public company that, similar to CCI, has manufacturing plants in both Canada and the U.S. That company, with 400 employees -- CCI has 350 in its four North American facilities -- boasted that it has "just five lost-time accidents" in the past three months.

"That company is not setting the right standard," Moore said. "In Orillia, you're setting the standard for safety. And when you read news reports about low Canadian productivity... that doesn't apply here. You guys are very productive."

Each employee was given a commemorative sweatshirt, a catered lunch and words of encouragement from the brass and local political officials.

"This is a remarkable achievement that both management and staff have worked very hard to achieve," said Simcoe North MP Bruce Stanton. "You are setting the standard."

That was a sentiment echoed in a short speech by Simcoe North MPP Garfield Dunlop and by Moore, who said the company's other three plants -- in Oakville, Edmonton and Greensburg, Ind., -- "continue to chase the Orillia plant when it comes to safety."

CCI Thermal Technologies, formerly known as Caloritech, opened at its current location in October 2000. The building was custom-designed to manufacture electrical heating elements. The plant also produces electrical heating elements for numerous manufacturers throughout North America. After CCI Thermal's acquisition of Wellman Thermal Systems, the Orillia facility expanded its production capabilities and now also produces strip heaters and heaters previously manufactured by Wellman.

FINDING THE RIGHT CURE
Tips on maintenance and energy efficiency
by Brynna Leslie

September 3, 2009 (Originally published in Coatings Magazine)

Curing is an important, but also costly, part of the finishing operation. Using the right equipment and using it properly is essential to achieving optimal results. Coatings Magazine recently spoke to a number of industrial oven suppliers about how to choose the right oven, and how to maintain equipment to ensure you’re getting the best finish in the most energy-efficient way.

MAKE THE RIGHT INVESTMENT
"The biggest mistake clients make is not doing some testing before they purchase," says Allan McKellar, Vice President of Sales for CCI Thermal Technologies Inc., Edmonton, AB. Next door to the company's Greensburg, Indiana manufacturing facility, there is a 6,000 sq ft research and testing centre, where CCI Thermal develops new products and allows clients to try various ovens in its DriQuik™ range.

"We have potential clients who show up for testing with their coatings reps attached to them. And we have this great opportunity to prove or disprove the technology for them in a touchy-feely way," says McKellar.

The size and shape of the parts on the finishing line, the type of coating to be cured, and even the amount of floor space available on the shop floor are all considerations before making the capital investment in an oven.

"Some people don't understand that there's a temperature range for optimum curing results," says McKellar. "The higher the temperature, the less time it's going to take. Inside a convection oven, you can only move around so much air. How well the coating transfers to the part depends on how hard you bang it. In a convection oven, you can only impinge the air so fast or you'll blow the powder off."

INFRARED VISION
CCI Thermal only deals in infrared ovens. McKellar says the decades-old technology has developed extensively over the past 20 years, making infrared a viable and energy-efficient option for any size or shape of part.

"There is still a belief out there that if the infrared can't see the entire part then it can't be used, that if a part is geometrically complex, or if it's oversized, only a convection oven can be used. Nothing could be further from the truth.

"The longer the wavelength, the less it cares about line of vision and it is not as range-to-object sensitive either. Longer wavelengths are way less sensitive to these variances than the short wavelength infrared that have been around much longer that have contributed to this myth."

However, the capabilities of infrared are still being debated within the industry. Most oven manufacturers agree that infrared is up to 75 per cent more energy efficient than convection ovens, but not everyone is ready to render convection ovens obsolete just yet.

Fostoria Process Equipment Division, Gray, TN, (formerly Fostoria Industries), pioneered infrared curing on automobile parts in conjunction with the Ford Motor Company in the late 1930s. Despite this long and successful history using infrared curing technology, the company still manufactures both infrared and convection ovens, suggesting there are benefits and drawbacks to both.

"Basically, infrared is going to cure it if it sees it, so if you have a line of sight, to me it's a no brainer," says Steve Fruth, vice-president of Fostoria Process Equipment Division. "You can have gas or electric infrared, the equipment cost is going to be less, it makes less of a footprint and there's a lot faster response."

Fruth says the difference between short and long wavelengths has been overblown by some in the industry.

"Yes, the coating will still get cured in those hidden pockets," Fruth says, "but it's not going to be as effective as if it's done with, or in combination with, a convection oven."

Infrared is generally considered the best option for small, symmetrical parts that run on a chain and edge conveyor. Infrared ovens can be powered up quickly and can cure coatings on these small parts at higher temperatures in a fraction of the time used by a convection oven. But convection ovens are still the favourite for large and irregularly shaped parts. Most advocates of convection ovens say the warm air circulation inside the oven ensures coatings in every nook and cranny are heated equally.

"You really have to understand the science behind the ovens to understand where you're going to gain efficiency," says Doug Canfield, president of Casso-Solar Corp., Pomona, NY. "Infrared heats the part directly. So the parts closest to the infrared energy will get more heat. Convection ovens heat the air in the oven, and the air then heats the part evenly, so it works really well for large pieces of sheet metal, or parts that have an irregular configuration."

Canfield says many of his clients have opted for an infrared booster inside a convection oven to get the best of both worlds.

"With convection ovens, the most energy is required to bring the oven and then the part to temperature," Canfield says. "If you take a convection oven and replace portions with infrared, you'll gain efficiency because the majority of the work is being done at 60 to 70 per cent higher efficiency."

MAINTENANCE
Convection ovens are certainly a dirtier breed than their radiant counterparts. Much like any residential furnace, convection ovens constantly circulate air, leading to heavy powder migration and residue collection on the interior walls, fans and filters. A lot of time, money and quality can be lost if the ovens aren't cleaned on a regular basis.

"Depending on how the system is designed, you should go in and manually scrape the inside of the ovens down," says Barrie Gillison, general manager of sales at R.F. Mote, Richmond Hill, ON. "If there are any filters attached to the system, make sure they're kept clean and changed often. Check the recirculation fans and exhaust fans and make sure there's no buildup there."

You also may not be getting the best bang for your buck if burners aren't running at full capacity, says Gillison. He recommends taking pressure readings on a regular basis to make sure the burners are running properly. If the quality of your finish is diminishing and you don't have time to do the readings, Gillison says a quick visual check will suffice.

"Most guys just look at the flames. If the flames are orange, instead of a nice blue, they are weaker than they should be and you'll find the oven is using more gas or the coating is not coming out the way it should be."

The lack of air circulation involved in the infrared process means the ovens require less frequent maintenance than convection ovens. There are no filters or fans to keep clean and there is less migration of coatings to the interior of the oven.

"Because there are very few moving parts, some electric heaters will run 30-40,000 hours before you even need to look at them," said Canfield at Casso-Solar.

But he warns that there can still be residue buildup, albeit minimal. For the infrared to reflect well, all reflective surfaces inside the inner chamber should stay clean and highly-polished. This includes the reflectors themselves, as well as the stainless steel interior walls, and even the bulbs. Generally a solvent wipe or a sponge-down with hot, soapy water is sufficient. But resist the urge to spray the interior with a pressure washer.

"There are fibrous pads in some of these ovens, which is a surface coated with a metal catalyst where the gas feeds in at the back," says CCI Thermal’s McKellar. "What you don't want to do is blow them off with the pressure washer and blow the fibrous pad right off. If you blow the catalyst out of it, the temperature in the oven won't rise above 250°F because it won't let you turn the gas on." McKellar says one of the easiest ways to keep your infrared oven clean is to run the emitters at full input with the oven empty for an hour every couple of weeks.

"Depending on how much powder migration you get from your plant into the oven, the powder can wander into the oven and into the emitters," McKellar said. "If you run the emitters on full, it basically works like your self-cleaning oven at home."

REDUCE AND REUSE
Besides good maintenance, suppliers point to a number of novel ways to save some money in the curing process by improving energy efficiency. R.F. Mote has come up with an innovative way to recycle some of the heat from the curing oven and turn it into a booster for another part of the finishing process.

"If there is an exhaust involved, you are basically pouring that excess heat outside," says Gillison. "When we design an oven, to try to minimize the cost losses, we minimize the exhaust. For example, we try to capture the exhaust from a curing oven and put it into a drying oven, where the heat doesn't have to be as precise or clean."

Similarly, one of the many benefits of infrared technology is the precision involved. The machines power up and down quickly, and they can be adapted to cure coatings on various sizes of substrates, says Fruth at Fostoria.

"Only have the emitters on when you need to have them on. If you only need to cure part of the product, you can zone infared, you can aim it onto a small section of the product that needs to be cured."

In addition, some finishers are using outdated techniques on the assembly line that the latest infrared technology renders unnecessary, says McKellar at CCI Thermal.

For example, "there's a misconception that everything needs a five-minute flash off after a paint coating to allow solvents to evaporate," says McKellar. "But with infrared – on metal or nonabsorbant substrates – the flash time is zero. Because the infrared is heating the entire thickness of the coating, it drives the solvents out before they have a chance to skin over."

STEPPING UP WHEN THE HEAT IS ON

February 2, 2009 (Originally published in The National Post)

CCI Thermal Technologies Inc.
Location Edmonton
Size 420 Employees
Sector Manufacturing
Market International

In the almost two decades that Harold Roozen, CCI Thermal Technologies Inc.'s CEO, has been working in the manufacturing industry, these are the toughest times for the sector he has witnessed. But his company, an engineering and manufacturing leader in heating and filtration solutions, is simply rolling up its sleeves and using the very strengths that earned it its success during the boom times to meet the current challenges and seize the opportunities. CCI Thermal has always focused on having a low-cost structure. It's always shopped the world for top-quality components at the best price, but today the company is also taking advantage of lower prices in steel, copper, zinc and platinum and is looking at stocking up.

"And we work on 90-day initiatives," Mr. Roozen says. "We sit down and say, 'what can we accomplish in 90 days?' That gives employees an opportunity to really see the wheels turn." It also allows the company to be quick in responding to the rapid changes in this economic environment.

CCI Thermal has always been tenaciously customer and employee focused. "That's No. 1, the customer. But we're also very employee-focused," he says. "We've spent a lot of time over the years making sure we hire the best people, keep them motivated, focused, that they're properly compensated. Everyone in this company from top to bottom gets a bonus twice a year."

In fact, this year the employees received an extra reward. "We went to all of our employees and we said, 'Look, we're seeing considerable stress coming on. How can we save 10% across the board? Whether it be turning lights off, whether it be buying paper from different suppliers in bulk, whatever you can think of,'" Mr. Roozen says. "Well, they came back and had significant savings, probably in the millions. Much to the employees' surprise, the company then turned around and gave them 20% of those savings."

CCI HELPS FEED BREAD OF LIFE
Elizabeth Baily

December 22, 2008 (Originally published in Greensburg Daily News)

A donation drive at CCI Thermal Technologies for the Greensburg Community Bread of Life kitchen that began on November 10 reached its completion with a donation of 925 pounds of food and $4,539.

The 21 members of the CCI staff collected 925 pounds of food and $903.50 in cash during the course of the drive. Chairman and CEO Harold Roozen encourages each of CCI's properties to support a food-based charity in their communities. As a measure of his support, he matches each dollar donated with three dollars and each pound of food collected with another dollar.

CCI Greensburg's Peggy Williams explained that the employees were encouraged by Roozen's match to purchase the maximum quantity of food for their buck, knowing, for instance, that an $8 bag of flour would cost Roozen $25 in matching funds.

"They had a lot of fun shopping," Williams said, "and were very conscious of quantity."

Last year, the Greensburg facility donated $3,313 and 571 pounds of food. This year's donation far surpasses that mark. Bread of Life board member Don Polston noted this donation is the largest one per-employee to date.

"I'm overwhelmed," he said.

Williams explained that funds were raised through a pancake breakfast as well as lunches of ham and beans or pizza. Each $5 meal ended up having a $20 impact for Bread of Life. In addition, each pound of food or dollar donated earned employees a ticket for a prize drawing, which was also held Monday.

After the month-long drive, Polston, Jerry Abplanalp and Joe Sahm packed up the large pile of food, including four turkeys, to be carried to the kitchen.

COMPANY RAISES $24K FOR FOOD BANK
Employees at CCI Thermal Technologies Inc. raised more than $24,000 for the Sharing Place Food Bank
Nathan Taylor

December 20, 2008 (Originally published in The Orillia Packet & Times)

The food and cash drive this year at CCI Thermal Technologies Inc. surpassed last year’s total — good timing for a local food bank that has seen a significant increase in demand.

The drive, which began early in November, netted $24,303.40 and 1,200 pounds of food for the Sharing Place Food Bank.

It was the second such effort by an internal employee committee at CCI. Last year’s total was more than $21,000.

"Last year, we were completely blown away by your generosity," Sharing Place executive director Don Evans said Friday, after accepting a cheque. "This is in the realm of miraculous. I’d like to thank everyone here because you are all heroes."

CCI raised the money and food through a number of initiatives, including a silent auction, pancake breakfast, 50/50 draw and bottle drive.

CCI owner Harold Roozen matched every dollar raised by employees three to one and also gave $1 for every pound of food collected.

"It's not only a great thing to do for a local charity; the group here has a lot of fun doing it," said Carl Williams, vice-president and general manager of the Orillia plant. "We hope we can continue to do it."

Williams challenged any local business to hold fundraising activities for food banks or other charities.

The donation from CCI comes at a time of year when the number of clients seeking the services of the Sharing Place is up about 30 per cent over this time last year.

"We're managing to dispense it as fast as it comes in. We're managing to keep pace, but the demand keeps getting higher," said Sharing Place board member Michael Craig.

Our company also does a lot for its employees and their families through company-sponsored events and social gatherings. We also play a role in every community (with fundraisers and charity work).

The total equals about $42 per employee — well above the goal of $15 per employee.

CCI Thermal Technologies Inc. Meets Challenge, Two Times Running!

Edmonton, Oakville, Orillia, Greensburg - December 17, 2008 - On November 15, Harold and Cathy Roozen challenged the employees of CCI Thermal Technologies Inc., for the second consecutive year, to raise money and food for their local food bank.

The challenge stated that for every dollar raised and every pound of food collected, Mr. & Mrs. Roozen would match each dollar and pound three to one. With facilities in Edmonton Alberta, Oakville and Orillia Ontario and Greensburg Indiana, a combined total of $13,254.00 was raised and 4053 lbs of food collected. That made the total $57,076.00 and 4053 lbs of food to be donated to the regional food banks.

"This year we are focusing our Christmas donations towards local food banks that help feed many homeless and less privileged families," stated Harold Roozen, Chairman and CEO. "When we look at some of the suffering around us this year, I can only say that we at CCI Thermal have a lot to be grateful for."

Since the challenge was initiated in 2007, the employees of CCI Thermal have raised over $103,000.00 and 7606lbs of food for food banks in all four regions.

SPECIFYING AN INFRARED OVEN
Ron McIlvaine, Business Manager - DriQuik™ Infrared Ovens

September 1, 2008 (Originally published in Process Heating magazine)

Learn what you need to know to get an oven that will effectively handle your range of parts for decades.

The question comes up all the time: What should I watch for when considering the purchase of an infrared oven? There are 10 basic factors to keep in mind. The first five relate to the application and the last five are things that you, the end user of the equipment, should strongly consider when purchasing an infrared oven.

As always, testing is highly recommended to confirm the oven design. After all, you would not buy a house without first looking it over to see if it really is what you need. Likewise, you would not buy a car without first taking it, or a model like it, out for a test drive.

I’ll start with what you need to know about your application.

1. Know Your Parts

The ovens supplier will need to know maximum and minimum part size. You should make sure that they test the oven design with these parts. The size of the part is the height, the width and the length of the part. Also, know which are the lightest and the heaviest parts.

Knowing the construction of the parts that will be processed in the oven also is very important in determining the energy density required to cure or dry your parts. In addition, the infrared oven supplier should know if you plan to “mix and match” different types of products going through the oven, and whether you can batch, or group, the differently constructed products.

The substrate and coating type also are important. Wood, plastic, composite, steel, aluminum and other materials, or combinations of substrates, all play a role in determining the best technology for curing or drying your coatings.

2. Know How You’ll Load

Several common conveyance methods are available. You will need to alert your oven supplier to the type you plan to use to convey the parts into the oven. Tied closely to this is the conveyor’s speed, which often is expressed in feet per minute.

Of course, there also are batch applications, where the parts do not move while they are in the oven. For batch applications, the oven supplier will need to know the size of the batched products and how many batches will be processed each shift.

3. Know Your Coating

This was alluded to in the first tip, but because it is so important, further discussion is necessary. Among the questions you should answer about the coating that will be used are the following:

Is the coating a water- or solvent-based coating?
Is it an air-dry material that you want to force dry?
Is it a plural-component coating?
Is it a baking enamel? If so, is it a high- or low-bake coating?
Is the coating a powder?

You also should be ready to share the coating’s curing parameters, which the coating supplier can provide. For example, what temperature is needed to cure the coating? Does it require flash time? If so, how much flash time is required?

4. Know Your Schedule

Sometimes, it is difficult to know your production schedule at the point at which you are specifying your oven, but it is important because it will be a significant deciding point when determining which type of infrared oven will best suit your application. Production schedule refers to how many shifts per day will be processing parts through the oven, and how many hours or minutes per shift the oven actually will be processing parts. Some applications run three shifts per day with line density to its maximum, and the conveyor rarely stops. Other applications run less than one shift per day with frequent starts and stops.

5. Know Your Budget

This probably should have been Tip 1, but I did not want to scare you off. You can save yourself and the infrared oven supplier hours of time by knowing how much you can spend on the oven component of your finishing system.

Once your budget is set and you are comparing proposals, make sure that when comparing different types of ovens -- infrared vs. convection, electric vs. gas, and so forth -- that you look at the oven as an installed component. Most (but not all) infrared ovens are prebuilt at the oven manufacturer’s facility. This greatly reduces installation time and costs. In addition, if the infrared oven’s control cabinet can be preinstalled on the oven at the time of manufacture, more money can be saved on installation costs. Evaluating systems based on installed price allows you to compare a complete accounting of costs for the systems being considered.

Having looked at the things you should know and tell the oven supplier about your application, I will now look at things you should consider when purchasing an infrared oven.

6. Buy What Suits You

The question, “Should I buy a gas-powered or electric-powered infrared oven?” is one that always comes up. It’s a difficult question. The “correct” answer depends on the variables specific to your plant, process and application, such as the planned production time and rate; the cost of gas and electricity for your plant; the availability of gas or electricity; and coating and substrate limitations. There is no one right answer -- there is only the right answer for your specific circumstances.

Using average energy costs, it generally takes three shift years to pay off the cost difference between a gas infrared oven and an electric infrared oven. That generality being said, across our world, energy costs are all over the place. The best way to know if you should be purchasing an electric or gas infrared oven is to run a return on investment scenario on the ovens quoted to you. Your infrared oven supplier should be able to help you do that.

There are times when, for your application, one product will stand out above all the rest. After you have seen the tests, you will know if that is the case. If it is, do not worry about whether it is gas or electric powered. Buy the best technology.

Lastly, before deciding upon a gas or electric infrared oven, make sure you have the proper utilities. If you do not have gas service available, an electric oven may be your only option. Conversely, if you do not have sufficient electrical service available, and the cost to run a new service into the building can be quite expensive, a gas infrared oven may be your only choice.

7. Save Floor Space

An infrared oven will use 10 percent to 30 percent of the floor space required by a convection oven. In some applications, an infrared oven can cure the coating in seconds, so floor space can be greatly reduced. If you run out of floor space, consider elevating the oven. Most infrared systems are light enough that they can be supported from the ceiling or placed on a mezzanine.

8. Watch the Exhaust

Except in some preheating applications, all infrared ovens need exhaust ducts that vent gases run to the outside of the building. Sometimes, your infrared oven supplier can get that down to one building penetration, but occasionally it has to be more. Work with your supplier to make sure you have enough exhaust, especially in powder applications. Do not take for granted that a fan at the end of an oven is sufficient to remove all of the smoke generated by some powders. This is another good reason to see the oven designed for you in operation during testing.

9. Don’t Skimp on Control

An infrared oven offers a distinct advantage over a convection oven, and that is temperature control. Temperature control is achieved by blending and maximizing temperature zones and recirculation air usage.

Zoning is controlling the amount of energy produced in various sections of the oven. The best infrared ovens offer zoning from top to bottom so that you can control the temperature over the height of the parts. A three-zone oven may have one zone along the top rows of infrared emitters; a second zone comprising the middle rows of infrared emitters; and a third zone controlling the bottom rows of infrared emitters. In addition, some infrared ovens can be zoned by length.

The addition of recirculation air can help to cool hot areas and keep parts from overheating in the case of a line stoppage.

10. Watch the Energy Density

Each infrared oven is designed around your parts and coatings with a desired range of energy density. Energy density is the amount of energy you apply to the curing chamber and generally is expressed in BTU per cubic foot (BTU/ft³). An oven with too little energy density will not get your parts hot enough in the time allotted to the curing process. An oven with too great an energy density will not allow you to keep sensitive parts cool enough, especially when the production line stops.

In conclusion, in the perfect world of the oven manufacturer, all of your parts would be of the same material and always facing the correct direction. In the end-user’s perfect world, the oven should morph into any configuration needed to cure parts using the least amount of energy required. It is safe to say that we do not live in a perfect world. Versatility costs money, efficiency is relative, and sometimes it is difficult to do what we want to do. The good news is that by being aware of the information that the infrared oven supplier needs from you and by knowing what features are available, you can expect to purchase an infrared oven that will properly process the full range of parts you coat and provide well-cured parts at a reasonable cost for decades.

CCI THERMAL TECHNOLOGIES CELEBRATES CANADA'S 50 BEST MANAGED AWARD

Howard Mozel, Oakville Beaver Staff

Mar 24, 2006 (Originally published in the Oakville Beaver)

While CCI Thermal Technologies Inc. is spread over four North American locations, its President and COO made it crystal clear last week that the Oakville facility was integral to the company being named one of Canada's 50 Best Managed Companies for 2005.

"You in Oakville should feel quite proud of this award," Bernard Moore told the assembled local employees at a celebratory lunch Thursday.

One ingredient that was certainly factored into making the list, Moore continued, was the record of two and a half years without lost time accidents at the Oakville location - yet another reason for jubilation.

CCI Thermal Technologies Inc. was selected one of Canada's 50 Best Managed Companies through a program sponsored by Deloitte, CIBC Commercial Banking, National Post and Queen's University School of Business that recognizes outstanding Canadian companies from a wide range of industries that have implemented and maintained world-class best-business practices.

Canada's 50 Best Managed Companies are evaluated on how they manage key challenges such as new technology adoption, globalization, and branding. Other considerations include leveraging and developing core competencies, facilitating growth and managing the new generation of people entering the labor market.

CCI Thermal Technologies Inc. is a global leader in advanced heating solutions, supplying customers through both its direct sales force and through high-quality manufacturer's representatives in more than 45 countries. Pursuing aggressive expansion into new and emerging domestic and international markets, CCI Thermal Technologies Inc. regularly achieves double-digit annual sales growth.

Moore told the crowd that the name of the award is a little unfortunate, since the honor was not attained by management alone but through the hard work of all employees.

"This prestigious national award is a tremendous compliment to all of our employees," said Moore, who also lauded workers for drastically improving customer service over the past three years. "It is recognition of years of their diligent efforts. It also confirms to our valued customers our commitment to being their vendor of choice."

CCI Thermal Edmonton is the corporate head office for the company. Opened in April 1997, the Oakville facility was custom built and the location was chosen for its convenient access to road, rail, air and sea routes for shipments throughout the Americas and around the world. It is the main fabrication site for the Caloritech™ line of electrical heating equipment for industrial processes and environments.

This facility - which employs 90 people - is certified ISO9001, carries the Chinese Safety Quality License for Import Boilers and Pressure Vessels, and meets ASME standards requiring the most stringent quality assurance control.

Third party inspector Marian Komor, an invited guest of Thursday's celebration, characterized CCI Thermal Technologies as an "exceptional company," one that designs and manufactures steam to nuclear equipment to only the highest standards. Better still, it does so safely and builds components that are equally safe when put to use by customers.

Moore - who hails from Oakville but now works at the Edmonton headquarters - said it was easy to sing the praises of the local facility. In fact, he said, the facility's lost-time record means more to him than the Best Managed award.

Oakville-based Caloritech™ (with a branch in Orillia ) was bought in 2001 by CCI Thermal Technologies Inc. Moore, its Vice President and General Manager at the time, says the parent company has allowed Caloritech™ to maintain its core values, resulting in high employee retention, capital investment, improved customer service and more.

With all this in place, Moore explained, it was a perfect time to apply for the Canada's 50 Best Managed Companies for 2005.

"It's very rare to make it on the first try," he said.

In addition to being a source of pride for employees, Moore explained that such an award has many spin-off benefits as well: customers prefer to buy from, and people like to work for, reputable companies and such an honor will help with marketing. (Moore's business card displays the Canada's 50 Best Managed Companies logo.) He also said it sets the bar high for the company's future endeavors.

LOCAL COMPANY EARNS NATIONAL HONOURS

Amy Lazar, The Packet and Times

Mar 24, 2006 (Originally published in The Packet and Times)

ORILLIA - CCI Thermal Technologies employees knew they won something because it isn't every day the head honcho stops by for lunch.

"You've won a contest you didn't even know you were in," President Bernie Moore told about 140 employees who had gathered in the lunchroom at the plant on Hunter Valley Road yesterday.

The company, which started in 1965 manufacturing and selling heating elements, has been named one of Canada's 50 Best Managed Companies, he told them.

"Orillia played a very strong part in this," said Moore.

The business award program recognizes excellence in Canadian-owned companies with revenues of more than $10 million.

CCI Thermal Technologies' largest customer is Bombardier, which uses its heaters to keep its customers warm.

While that made it onto the application last summer, so did a few anecdotes from the local plant that illustrate managing challenges like new technology adoption, globalization and branding - some of the criteria for the nod.

"When we started on-time delivery measurement, Orillia was at about 65 percent," Moore said. "Now you are routinely in the 90s. Many customers buy from us today because we deliver on time."

He also mentioned the acquisition of Wellman Thermal Systems, which meant the Orillia plant, which was built in 2000, had to expand its production capability.

"We moved all our customers and didn't lose one," Moore said. "With a transition like that, it is unheard of."

Every employee received a token of appreciation after lunch, straight from the president's hands.

"The management and teamwork you've shown here today shows right here in this room - you've included everyone in the celebration," said Simcoe North MPP Garfield Dunlop, who brought a plaque from the provincial government congratulating the company on its achievement.

CCI Thermal Technologies is among 49 other noted companies, including Barrie Metals Group of Companies.

MANAGEMENT KUDOS FOR CCI

David Finlayson, The Edmonton Journal

Tuesday, March 21, 2006 (Originally published in The Edmonton Journal)

EDMONTON - When you're supplying critical equipment to such demanding customers as NASA and Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd., there's no room for error.

So quality control is a key issue at the cluster of five companies that is CCI Thermal Technologies, whether it's a gas recovery system for a nuclear reactor or an explosion-proof heater for an oil and gas facility, President Bernie Moore says.

"Quality is a mindset. Employees have to be able see the key process indicators so they know the improvements they are making. We have a bulletin board at every plant that shows the impact they are having."

Moore also makes sure workers are kept in the loop through regular round-table meetings, and he has a little book he takes around the shop floor to write down suggestions from staff.

So it's no surprise he gives most of the credit to the company's 360 employees for making the list of 50 best-managed Canadian companies.

Last week he travelled to the operations in Orillia and Oakville, Ont., and Greensburg, Indiana, to thank them all.

"It's an important award for us. People like to do business with well-managed companies."

CCI is well-managed enough it has been able to parlay strong technology and reasonable prices into selling heating elements to manufacturing powerhouse China.

But Moore is the first to acknowledge that having an independent board -- even though it's a private company -- has played a big role in keeping the ship steady, especially through four acquisitions in as many years that changed a small local company into a top North American player.

The company actually started life in 1964 as Ciscan Industries. When Harold and Cathy Roozen bought it in 1992, the 25 employees were producing the patented Cata-Dyne™ line of explosion-proof gas catalytic heaters for the oil and gas industry.

CCI Thermal was born out of a merger between Ciscan and DriQuik Inc. of Greensburg in early 2001.

Adding DriQuik™'s line of electric infrared curing systems more than doubled the size of the company overnight, and created the largest gas and electric-based infrared equipment manufacturer in North America.

Ontario-based Caloritech™, Wellman Thermal Systems Inc. of Shelbyville, Ind. , and Calgary's Ruffneck Heaters were added through 2003.

It has been a challenge getting them all on the same page while retaining the core characteristics of each, says Moore, who came to CCI with the Caloritech merger and became President last year as CEO Harold Roozen focused more on long-term strategy.

"The real trick is to have corporate standards of excellence, but have some local autonomy for the execution of them."

Now the divisions are integrated enough that they are making components for each other as well as continuing to produce their core products.

CCI doesn't make its bottom line public, but Moore says growth is 13 to 15 per cent a year, and he sees lots of room for further sales in the U.S. and eastern European oil and gas markets.

"Acquisitions will still be available, but our main focus is leveraging our technology and customer service to optimize the value of our existing assets. We are very pleased with our growth beyond the value of the acquisitions."

A bigger emphasis on research and development in the last few years should keep the company at the forefront of technology, Moore says.

The company built a $750,000 infrared testing facility in Greensburg to complement the natural gas research at the 9,000-square-metre Edmonton facility.

And they've launched a strategic marketing plan to raise the profile of each division.

"Companies can be very reactive, but what separates the great companies such as Microsoft and Toyota is innovation and strategic marketing," he says.

While CCI has worked hard to get all the divisions ticking over nicely, the irony of the fact the acquisitions initially made to lessen the company's dependence on oil and gas are now making much of their money in that field is not lost on Moore.

But with the price of oil forecast to remain above $60 through 2007, he's not about to jump off that horse any time soon.
