About us
We’re the Okanagan's steel fabrication experts! We’ve changed our name! Formerly WMI Manufacturing Corp. (Waterplay Manufacturing Incorporated), we’re now Wekid Mfg, a name that is as playful and spirited as the fabricators who work and play here. With 100s of 1000s of successful products installed around the globe, we know steel—it’s been our business for nearly two decades. We’re part of a group of companies that “makr” up the MAKR Group: Parkworks, Waterplay and Wekid. We all share a common passion to connect communities through play and social experiences – we’re a tiny piece of a bigger puzzle, but an important piece!
