Magni at the service of Complexe Atlantide

As a 2022 novelty Complexe Atlantide has decided to build an impressive new water slide. The park chose Magni to handle and assemble the structure.

Complexe Atlantide is a water park that opened in 2013 in SaintCalixte, Quebec. The owners, Tommy Gagnon and Alain Turcotte, wanted to create a family oriented site of fun and entertainment with attractions and shows. Complexe Atlantide’s mission is to offer quality recreational experiences, relying on a family atmosphere, respect for customers and diversity, quality of services and a highly passionate and professional team. Over the years, the owners have invested heavily in increasing the number of activities available. To date, the site includes wave pools, water slides, zoos, animal refuge, magic castles, labyrinth, gyms and nature trails. As a 2022 novelty, a new swimming pool and a structure consisting of two slides were added, one for the bravest and one for the youngest. Offering a lifting height of 35 metres and a capacity of 6 tonnes, an RTH 6.35 was used to assemble the whole structure. This model was crucial to the realisation of the project. Besides building the load-bearing structure, it allowed to handle and positioning of the slides and tubes. The RTH 6.35 was supplied by our local authorised dealer Cropac Equipment Inc. Covering the highest number of provinces, the company is the largest dealer of Magni in Canada. They offer a wide range of solutions for the sale and rental of lifting equipment, including Magni’s ranges of rotating and fixed telehandlers. Cropac Equipment Inc deal in transportation, forestry, steel processing, rigging, heavy materials movement and marina storage. With highly qualified staff, sales and technical support teams, the company listens to its customers’ needs and satisfies them in the best possible way. They also provide specialised technical assistance and spare parts service. The 6 tons winch was the key attachment for this specific type of job. Consisting of a swivelling type-approved hook equipped with a rope pressure roller and hydraulic limit switch system for rope raising/ lowering, it allows handling heavy loads with the utmost precision. We wish to thank the park owners for choosing us as their lifting partner and Cropac Equipment Inc for supplying the machine to the customer.
