AMFE >>COMPLETES INTERLOC-KINGS ACQUISITIONS
Interloc-Kings Inc. has grown to become one of, if not, the largest residential winter service provider to the region of Ontario north of Toronto in terms of number of households serviced on a yearly basis and conducts hardscape installations of stone and wood products in the summer. This region of Ontario North of Toronto, is one of the fastest growing regions in Ontario and is considered the High-Tech Capital of Canada. With the amount of construction and number of households greatly increasing at an average cost of over $600k per property, it was felt this region was a great start for the Interloc-Kings Inc. franchise back in 2009.
Among other things, Interloc-Kings Inc. plans on trying to expand the adhesive it has created and successfully used on some past installations. Briefly, this is a glue and sand based grout used for the joints of concrete products including retaining walls, steps etc… to increase the structural integrity by hampering any water-penetration and assist the adhesion of the top coping stones of which there is no competing product to our knowledge being used in our industry to date for this application. We will also be exploring more in depth a beet juice de-icing product which has been gaining more popularity and is being tested as an additive or alternative to road salt by cities and municipalities throughout Canada and the Northern United States over the past few years. Road salt is a large cost for contractors and city budgets throughout the winter season and finding a way to reduce these costs is of great importance to the entire industry.
