TCA’s Annual Golf Tournament

TCA’s annual golf tournament tee’d off this September at Puslinch Lake Golf Course, offering employees an unforgettable afternoon of golf, camaraderie, and prizes.

Nine teams enjoyed the sunshine while they competed in a friendly best-ball game over nine holes.

Afterward, everyone gathered for a delicious dinner and the distribution of prizes. Whether you scored closest to the pin or simply had a great time, there was something for everyone!

Thank you to our suppliers for donating the prizes that made for an extra special day.

TCA Retirement Celebration

TCA recently had the privilege of celebrating two long-term employees’ retirements with a BBQ and Magic Show!

Thank you to both Carlos and Ken for your combined 39 years of dedication and service to Assembly and Machining!

We hope you both enjoy retired life as much as we enjoyed working with you!

Special thanks to Noah Nogueira for providing us some magical entertainment!

Happy Halloween!

TCA’s Pumpkin Carving Contest

Employees and their family members were asked to break out their pumpkin carving kits and put their creative minds to work for our Pumpkin Carving Contest!  We had 4 different age categories with a winner in each. Check out some of the tremendous work our participants did!

We can’t forget TCA’s costumed mascots!

TCA Celebrates 25 Years!

It all starting from humble beginnings: a borrowed laptop, borrowed printer and modest line of credit.  Two young men, only a few years out of school, dared quit their jobs to design and build TCA’s first machine. Money and time were lacking, but confidence, creativity, and tenacity were not! Now, 25 years later, confidence is based on experience. Creativity and tenacity continue with every employee and project. The result? We regularly ‘wow’ our customers with exceptional machines. 

Today we celebrate the customers and employees who have given us 25 years. 

Here’s to 25+ more!

Revolutionizing the way food is grown

Combining state-of-the-art LED technology and automated equipment to grow food in urban areas.

The planet has lost some 40 per cent of its arable land over the past few decades, and we’re rapidly depleting the rest. The farmers at We the Roots grow leafy greens for chefs like O&B’s Anthony Walsh in a hydroponic, automated vertical farm just off the DVP, using less space to cultivate more food year round. They’re boosted by some out-of-this-world technology from the University of Guelph, where researchers are developing plants that can thrive in hostile environments like Mars. The trick is tailored LED light combinations: scientists can tweak the lights’ colour and intensity to alter the nutrients, growth and even flavour profile of arugula, chicory and kale.
