Industrial Safety
Railway safety training, industrial rail audits, baseline assessments, track inspection, and derailment investigations, delivered on-site across Canada from Calmar, Alberta.
The case file
Canadian Railway Solutions works in an industry where credibility is everything. Safety training, industrial rail audits, track inspection, and derailment investigations are bought by safety managers, procurement teams, and operators who need to trust a vendor before they pick up the phone.
We built the company its first Astro site, and in October 2026 we rebuilt it from the ground up: a new corporate design system, a full new image set, image-led mega menus, and an app-style shell on phones. The search groundwork from the earlier SEO pass came along intact, checked page by page against a baseline of every title, heading, link, and schema block.
The site now moves like the industry it serves. A pinned, scroll-driven hero glides down an industrial spur toward a tank car loading rack, the logo assembles itself rail by rail on the first visit, and every page change sweeps a navy railway panel across the screen that names the stop you are heading to.
Underneath, the site moved to Astro 7 on Cloudflare Workers, the contact form gained server-side validation, rate limiting, and Turnstile, and more than 30 automated browser tests guard the navigation, transitions, and mobile shell. At launch QA, Lighthouse scored accessibility and SEO at 100 on every public page.
The brief
The first site did its job, but next to the regulated, high-stakes work behind it, it read like a brochure. Canadian Railway Solutions needed a presence that matched the procurement teams evaluating it, with room for new services like baseline assessments and COR and SECOR support, without giving up the search ground it had already gained.
We rebuilt the site on a corporate design system of navy structural bands, light content surfaces, and a single hi-vis orange accent. Mega menus show every service and resource with pictures, phones get a bottom tab bar and a floating call and text button, and motion (a scroll-scrub hero, an animated logo loader, and railway page transitions) gives the brand a confidence the old site lacked.
Problems solved
Three concrete problems on the old experience, and the fixes we shipped.
A corporate design system, a cinematic scroll-driven hero, and detailed service scopes present the company as the established operator procurement teams expect.
Image-led mega menus group the main services, sub-services, and AI integration, and put the guides and the CROR, IROR, and track safety downloads one click from any page.
An app-style bottom tab bar keeps Home, Services, Call, and Contact under the thumb, with a floating button that opens call and text options on every page.
Live screens
Desktop and mobile captures from the live site, not mockups.
Search visibility
Concrete search foundations for Canadian Railway Solutions, not a generic checklist.
Mobile ready
Most visits happen on a phone. The layout, type, and actions are designed for thumbs, not just shrunk from desktop.

Every service, guide, and download within one menu of any page
