Our specialty: repairing the “unrepairable”

Our clients are often shocked to learn that 95% of the ‘unrepairable’ cathodes we see can actually be repaired to original standards. With decades of experience and insight, we’re experts at generating inventive solutions that maximize productivity while reducing costs.

We are where you are

Headquartered in Canada, EPCM operates globally but supports clients locally through our operations in North America, South America, and Europe. We are the go-to experts for restoring nonperforming cathodes — and your tankhouse productivity.

Since we started repairing cathodes with EPCM, we have been able to eliminate the purchase of new cathodes and we have increased profitability by over $2 million through increased production.
