SKED 3D

Values

From the begining of the company, SKED has chosen to put forward some values. We continuously strive to uphold these values through our interactions and actions.

Integrity

We give a particular importance to our words. Consistently and rigorously honoring our commitments.

Excellence

Delivering products that reflect our high standards. Encouraging and participating in the development of the company and its human resources through learning and challenges – vital to our creativity and excellence.

Communication

Sharing information at the right time and transparently to build trust, strong relationships, and reasonable expectations. Listening to and understanding different points of view, ideas, and approaches to problem-solving – rather than judging unconsciously.

Teamwork

We collaborate, act, and treat our clients, staff and suppliers equally. The goal is to maximize everyone's contribution and add perspective to our daily work.

Founder

Hello reader, let me introduce myself, Francis, founder and president of SKED 3D Printing. Entrepreneurship has been an interest of mine since my college years, and in 2024, I decided to start my own business. I have been doing 3D printing since 2017, and I plan to scale my passion into a large company!

After completing a technical diploma in mechanical engineering, I went on to earn a bachelor's degree in the same field. Today, I am a CEP (Candidate to the Engineering Profession). I plan to become an Engineer by the end of 2025! I chose this field to understand how our world works and how it is made. I currently hold a position as a mechanical designer in robotics, where I can showcase my creativity in my daily work.

My goal is for SKED to become a pillar of 3D printing in Quebec, your reference for 3D printing. To achieve this, I want to share my passion, my accomplishments, and my journey with you. I hope you enjoy watching me grow and getting to know me.

When I’m not in front of my computer or 3D printers, I enjoy photography and riding around the streets of Montreal on my skateboard.

Looking forward to talking with you,

- Francis Durand, CEP
