Regina's industrial economy started on rail and wheat: the transcontinental rail link was completed in 1885, and the Marquis wheat strain, developed soon after, turned the surrounding Prairie into some of the continent's most productive grain country, laying the groundwork for a packaging automation need that has only grown since. A grain-handling cooperative once billed as the world's largest built its head office in Regina, a legacy that still shapes the city's role as a hub for grain and commodity handling. Steel manufacturing followed a similar arc. A steel plate and pipe producer traces its roots to a 1956 pipe plant and now ranks among the world's leading producers of that product. An automotive assembly plant operated in Regina from 1927 until the Great Depression, and it was later repurposed to build armaments during the Second World War. Oil, natural gas, potash, kaolin, sodium sulphite, and bentonite round out the resource base feeding Regina's manufacturing economy today.
Our EliteFill auger and powder fillers handle the grain, potash, and mineral-derived products moving through Regina's commodity-handling economy, dosing accurately at the volumes a cooperative-scale grain handler or mineral producer expects. Premade-pouch and bagging equipment covers smaller-format retail and food-commodity packaging for producers scaling beyond bulk handling alone. Our Saskatchewan location page and powder and granular industry page lay out the regional market, our auger and powder-filling category page and premade-pouch category page detail machine specifications, and our solutions page covers what quoting, sourcing, and install involve for a Saskatchewan producer. PLAN IT has no facility in Regina. Saskatchewan producers work with us directly on sourcing, integration, and service.
