Remembering Richard Crauford Founder of Janox

Dear Valued Customers and Partners,

It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of Richard Crauford, founder of Janox.

Richard founded Janox in 1974 with a vision built on engineering excellence, innovation, and a strong commitment to solving complex hydraulic challenges. Over more than five decades, his leadership, expertise, and integrity helped establish Janox as a trusted partner to customers across Canada and beyond.

His passion for his work and dedication to Janox remained evident throughout his life. That same commitment shaped the culture, values, and team that continue to define our company today.

While we mourn his loss, we are deeply grateful for the legacy he leaves behind. Janox remains committed to honouring that legacy by continuing to deliver the quality, expertise, and service our customers have come to expect.

We thank Richard for his vision, leadership, and lasting contribution to our company and industry. We also thank our customers, partners, and suppliers for the trust and support you have shown Janox over the years.

Richard’s legacy will continue to guide our work for years to come.

Sincerely,

Janox Team
