Quiet on Set….Lights…Camera….ACTION

This phrase is known to most of us but to WesternOne it has a special meeting. For over 20 years WesternOne and its principal founding legacy company Production Equipment, have been honoured to service the equipment needs of Western Canada’s growing film industry.

“Quiet on set” to us means our equipment used to create the set design and later dismantle it, have done their job. That our lift equipment has correctly positioned the “lights, sound and camera” crews to capture each of those creative moments of film artistry.

Yes, at WesternOne it is “Action” that raises us above our competitors. We have earned a reputation for service to the industry that has privileged us to be involved in so many great film and TV productions done here in Western Canada. Production crews know they can count on WesternOne to be on time with delivery, that the equipment delivered is in peak operating condition and that all special requirements, last minute moves or additional set requirements will be promptly responded to by WesternOne.

When each minute of film captured can cost thousands of dollars, it is important that all of our equipment and logistics perform at their best. At WesternOne we strive to provide an Academy Award winning performance in every production. Since every production carries a little bit of us in them, when they win awards and accolades, become box office hits or wow audiences, we in turn, feel a little piece of the fame.

As Canada’s gateway to the Orient, Vancouver and Victoria are among Canada’s busiest ports. Throughout history, they have hosted a vibrant ship building, ship maintenance and refit industry. Victoria is also Canada’s second largest Naval and Coast Guard/Fisheries Port and hosts one of Canada’s busiest Cruise Ship Ports of Call.

For over 43 years WesternOne has been an active supplier of the marine repair industry. Most of these vessels that dock in BC require regular maintenance, repairs and refits supplied by BC’s Marine contractors. We stock over 1800 different items to service their requirements. From aerial lifts, forklifts, material handling equipment, scaffolding, fans, heaters, welders, air tools , compressors and hoists and more.
