Nordic Institute of Quebec

Located on the University Laval campus in Quebec city, this scientific complex, set to be completed by 2026 with an investment of over $22 million from the Canadian and Quebec governments, will feature multiple cutting-edge laboratories focusing on significant research themes, including a logistics center for preparing maritime and land missions, and laboratories for simulating the extreme cold of the North.

Epsylon will realize the envelope of this new research facility, including 11 000 sq. ft. of preglazed, conventional and inclined curtain wall, as well as interior glazing and railings.

Vaudreuil-Soulanges Hospital

Construction work on Vaudreuil-Soulanges Hospital began in 2022, and will be completed in 2026. The health care centre will have two wings, a total of 132,340 m2 of space. It will offer 404 beds, an operating suite with 11 operating rooms, and an emergency room that can accommodate 41 stretchers. The project represents an overall investment of $2.6 billion.
Once it opens, Vaudreuil-Soulanges Hospital will provide local care and services for neighbouring communities, as well as specialized services for the entire population of the CISSS de la Montérégie-Ouest region. Pomerleau is leading the project, and Epsylon is delighted to be contributing to this remarkable new building that will be contemporary, welcoming and energy-efficient.

The construction work for the aquatic complex will be completed by fall 2024. The steel structure and envelope will be finished by the end of 2023, and fit-up of the building’s interior is currently underway.

Sainte-Foy seniors’ home

This seniors’ and alternative home is made up of eight living units with twelve beds each. 84 of those beds are reserved for senior citizens, while the remaining 12 are kept for adults with special needs.

This type of living situation is designed to feel more like home, mainly by offering a friendlier environment with indoor and outdoor areas that are specially adapted to the changing needs of residents and their loved ones, and being open to the community. The contractor, Pomerleau, chose Epsylon for this institutional project designed to improve quality of life for our most vulnerable populations.

GMP Royalmount CMWP

Epsylon participated in the construction of biologic production facilities to support the long-term development of Canada’s ability to protect its citizens’ health.

The production centre was completed and made operational in record time. This new infrastructure has strengthened Canada’s overall readiness for biofabrication and preparedness in response to a pandemic by allowing vaccines and other biologic drugs to be developed entirely in Canada, from invention through to the final product.
