πππππ Anchor Systems
Safeguarding Workers on Skyscrapers β Pioneering Fall Protection for 30 years
Daniel F. Chen, P.Eng. FEC, President
Marking its 30th anniversary, πππππ has established itself as the leading fall protection company in Canada and the West Coast of the US. The firmβs acclaim stems from its role as a construction consultant following a rare practice of providing its clients with complete solutions. This includes designing, engineering, installing, supplying, and certifying exterior building maintenance and fall protection systems. These comprehensive solutions comprise a wide range of products like anchors, Davit systems, building maintenance units (BMUs), and monorails.
βWe focus on delivering turnkey solutions that cover all products required for a project in one place rather than individually selling products,β says Daniel F.Chen, P.Eng. FEC, President of πππππ Anchor Systems.
πππππβs proactive stance towards viewing competition and challenges as growth opportunities is evident in notable client acquisitions. An illustrative example is the collaboration with Concord Pacific β one of the biggest community developers in North America, where the companyβs approach of proposing and delivering monorail systems for the ARC building project in Vancouver led to a long-term collaboration.
Its engineers and designers also assist clients in determining the apt fall protection solution and provide detailed layouts of specified product placement on buildings. This allows architects and builders to streamline their construction and maintenance planning, as well as equipment acquisition, before beginning the project, providing a cost-effective alternative.
Chenβs extensive engineering expertise is crucial in the design-build process for robust solutions. In addition, the firmβs constant product line expansion has proven pivotal in enabling multiple clients to effectively protect their maintenance employees, regardless of building infrastructure complexity. This fact is prominently displayed in the annals of organizational history.
Originally established as a manufacturer and supplier of anchors, πππππ quickly redirected its focus on delivering complete solutions by strategically partnering with top equipment suppliers to stay ahead in the construction industry. One such notable example of this alliance is demonstrated through the firmβs collaboration with several leading global equipment suppliers like Manntech, and NoRaCon.
These crucial efforts, coupled with its commitment to prioritizing the safety of construction workers, have been instrumental in garnering positive feedback and fostering strong client relationships. The firmβs dedication is further evidenced by its proactive approach to viewing competition and obstacles as growth opportunities.

This dedication is a vital factor for πππππβs title as a leader in the fall protection industry, consistently delivering high-quality solutions that cater to the complexities of the evolving construction landscape.
