Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Industrial Air Curtain Development – New Heights and Features
1009374
Schwank is developing a new Industrial Air Curtain aimed at providing comfort, improving indoor air quality, and reducing noise levels in warehouses and distribution centers. The project addresses market demand for flexible and connected climate solutions. Key objectives include designing a connected, controllable air curtain with a flexible mounting height, achieving extremely low sound levels, and offering options for hot water coil heating. The air curtain will also be AMCA-certified, ensuring compliance with energy codes like ASHRAE 90.1 and IECC, and designed to meet requirements for use in commercial and industrial buildings.

Schwank’s next innovation project will be to develop its own Air Curtain product line-up. Schwank currently private labels from a European company. With this current partnership, Schwank is not able to provide a good customer experience due to poor delivery times and technical support. Also, the current product line is not differentiated from the competition. Schwank is planning to develop its own Air Curtain line that provide a system solution with our IR heaters that will provide comfort and efficiency synergies when integrated with dedicated controls. Schwank is also looking to potentially add some of the following features/differentiators to the Air Curtain product: UV lighting for clean air, HEPA filters, and/or IOT.
