More Than Helmets — Real Support, Real Service, and the Right Equipment
Welding students deserve gear that works as hard as they do.
At Kristian Electric, we’ve been supporting Canadian welders since 1964 — and that includes the students learning the trade today. Through Miller’s exclusive Education Discount Program, we help schools, trade colleges, and post-secondary institutions across Canada access safe, reliable, industry-grade welding equipment.
Not Just Helmets — We Do Welding Machines Too
Yes, we supply helmets, gloves, PPE, and consumables — but we also provide complete welding machine solutions for classrooms and labs. We work directly with educators to help choose the right machines, handle logistics, and — unlike most suppliers — we’ll actually help set up the equipment in your classroom.
That’s right. We don’t just drop off a stack of boxes and disappear. We’ll work with your instructors to:
Unpack and install welding machines
Walk through configuration and setup
Ensure everything is ready before students step into the booth
Stick around when questions come up later on
Need support mid-semester? No problem. Just call us — that’s the Kristian Electric promise: support that continues long after the sale.
Take Advantage of Miller’s Education Program
This program gives institutions access to additional savings on:
Hands-on setup assistance (yes — we help get the machines running!)
Real, ongoing support from a team that knows welding
Built for Educators. Backed by Experience.
We support schools and programs of all sizes, including:
High school welding and trades programs
Technical training institutes and colleges
Apprenticeship and re-entry training centres
Workforce development organizations
If you’re running a one-room shop class or a full-scale welding lab, we’re here to help you make the most of your budget and get the gear you actually need.
Ready to Gear Up?
We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Our team will work with you to build a setup that fits your students, your curriculum, and your space — whether that’s a few helmets or an entire classroom of machines. We got you covered!
Support the next generation. Deliver with care. Go the extra mile. Because when it comes to welding education, it’s not just about what you teach — it’s about having the right gear, and the right support behind it.
When your crane stops working, so does your business. At Kristian Electric, we specialize in crane repair, overhead crane service, and preventative crane maintenance across Alberta and Saskatchewan. Whether it’s an emergency breakdown or routine inspection, we’re here to get your equipment back up — and keep it running.
