Celebrating ten years of advancing NDT
18/12/2019
From a young start-up, Eddyfi Technologies has become a group and a key player in the NDT equipment business. Eddyfi now features six brands, over 475 employees and has customers in more than 110 countries.Eddyfi was established in the aftermath of the 2008-2009 recession with the humble ambition to change the NDT industry. To achieve this, it adopted a high-end/advanced positioning and a mission to ‘push the limits of NDT technology’.
Eddyfi defined its culture and values around its passion for technology, a focus on its clients and being entrepreneurial. Those were key requirements for a new company that wanted to establish itself and prove its relevance to the market.
Eddyfi Technologies is much more today than the original Eddyfi brand created in November 2009 in Québec City, Canada. Today’s success is the result of synergies and new relationships born from the acquisitions of the Silverwing, TSC, Teletest, M2M and Inuktun product lines. Each of these joined the company with their own strong histories, some dating back several decades, and their own successes that, when combined, shape the portrait of Eddyfi Technologies as we know it today.
Martin Theriault, Co-Founder and CEO of Eddyfi Technologies, said: ‘’We had some dreams but, in all honesty, we never thought that Eddyfi could have become what it is today. This realisation, building a great technology NDT business, deserves to be celebrated and recognised. We are very grateful to the individuals and companies that have trusted and chosen us over the years. Several clients literally took a leap of faith and we will be forever grateful for their early support. In addition, I want to thank the individuals and corporations that chose us to acquire their businesses and allow the creation of the Eddyfi Technologies Group. Finally, to the core Eddyfi employees and those that joined us through the acquisitions: thank you for embracing the mission and the vision to create a great NDT equipment company.”
The theme of the ten-year celebrations will be the Power of Ten: “It is a strong concept and a nice nod to the science behind all the technologies that strengthen Eddyfi Technologies’ mission to push the boundaries of the NDT industry. ‘Power of Ten’ brings the idea of a strong base, such as the one that was put in place in 2009, that is exponentially stronger when multiplied and empowered. We thought it was a nice parallel that allowed us to celebrate our significant growth, while hinting at the future of the company,” concluded Martin.
