What our clients have to say...

JOHN SALZGERBER

Electrical Instrumentation Lead McCain Foods USA

“EPSCO has enabled our facility to perform electrical maintenance safely and effectively. Our team is aware of the risks and hazards associated with arc flash and blast thanks to the quality training provided by EPSCO.”

BEN BERTRAM

Plant Manager Sanimax

We hired EPSCO to perform an Arc Flash Analysis on all of our electrical equipment in the plants. They performed their work efficiently and provided us with a very detailed report and drawings. The communication from the entire team throughout the project was above and beyond my expectations and the subsequent training for my employees after the study was extremely beneficial in helping to increase our in-house electrical and safety knowledge. Their understanding of customer service is exceptional. I would highly recommend their services to others in the manufacturing industry.
