The CRN (Canadian Registration Number) is the ticket to entry for any pressure equipment in Canada: valves, safety valves, tanks, heat exchangers, instruments, etc. Without this number, no installer can set up the product and no industrial customer will take the risk of purchasing it.
In short: without a CRN, there’s no market.

The CRN: a commercial lever above all

The CRN is not just a regulatory requirement: it's a commercial lever. Buyers, operators, and process engineers today seek pre-registered and compliant equipment, ready to be installed immediately.
Manufacturers and distributors who can offer CRN ready equipment save time, gain credibility, and have a clear advantage in bids.

The role of VAMECA

At VAMECA, we distribute industrial valves and pressure equipment that already meet Canadian requirements.
All our products comply with ASME, CSA, and B51 codes and are CRN registered according to provincial jurisdictions.
This means you can purchase, receive, and install without delay, while ensuring traceability and compliance of your installations.

We work with recognized manufacturers, and our role is simple: make your projects executable right away.

Why it’s a competitive factor

An industrial project often hinges on the ability to deliver quickly and compliantly.
Having access to a local stock of CRN registered equipment means:

• Avoiding certification delays,

• Eliminating inspection hold-ups,

• Accelerating commissioning,

• Securing the relationship with the end client.

It's about agility, not paperwork.

Conclusion

The Canadian market is demanding: it rewards those capable of combining technology, compliance, and responsiveness.
At VAMECA, we ensure compliance is not a hindrance, but a competitive advantage.
Your project deserves products that are ready, validated, and available — that is exactly what we deliver.
