The Leadership
The concept for Canopex was developed by two engineers, one with considerable experience in petroleum industry canopy design, construction, and repair, and the other with extensive experience in project management, inspection, and maintenance.
Neil Winter is the CEO of Canopex. Neil is also CEO of Enloe, where he has been employed since 1990. His years of experience in the canopy construction and repair business enabled him to identify the trend in structural failures, diagnose the causes, and recommend creative solutions. Neil began working with other engineers to identify the most effective technology available for safely evaluating the condition of a canopy. This effort resulted in a comprehensive, patented inspection process. Neil holds a BS in civil engineering from Purdue University.
Eric Wilson is the General Manager of Canopex. Eric has extensive experience in engineering and operations management, project coordination, and maintenance. During his tenure as a maintenance engineer with DuPont, Eric gained valuable knowledge in ultrasonic inspection, a process that is an integral part of the Canopex protocol. Eric holds a BS in mechanical engineering from Clemson University.
