Bringing the Best Canadian Brands and Products to Workplaces Nationwide

InternationalSafety.com, a Canadian industrial equipment marketplace, has been taking big steps to highlight and promote Canadian-made products long before the current tariff talk from their neighbor to the South. The retailer was featured 2022 as a finalist in the Ontario Made initiative and they are committed to supporting Canadian manufacturers by offering high-quality personal protective equipment (PPE) and safety solutions made in Canada.

While some manufacturers are Canadian-born, their products may contain materials sourced from abroad. This distinction between "Canadian-made" and "Canadian-owned" can be challenging to navigate. At International Safety, they understand the importance of transparency and are ready to help answer any questions about product origins, ensuring you make informed decisions about your PPE purchases.

Here are some of the Canadian options they highlight:
