Solid
Canadian
Allwood Solution Ltd is not
just proud to be Canadian, we are Solid Canadian. This is why the Maple Leaf is
part of our logo. But it goes beyond just putting the national symbol in ones
logo it must be reflected in how a company does business.
Allwood
Solutions Ltd. supports Canadian suppliers and mills. Our plywood is Canadian
made. Our lumber is from Canadian suppliers and from Canadian mills, whenever
possible, some woods are not grown in Canada. Our wood glue is Canadian made.
Our stains and finishes are Canadian made. Even our screws are Canadian made
from Canadian steel. We could always buy cheaper off shore but we will not be
Solid Canadian.
According
to Canadian law if 51% of the total cost is done in Canada it can have a "Made in
Canada" sticker on it. Just recently in the news a customer peeled of a made in
Canada sticker to find a product of China sticker under it. This may be legal
because they added 51% to the total costing of the product they bought in China,
but it is morally wrong.
We
buy locally, then we buy nationally, and then we will buy North American, we try
to avoid imports. If we do not support Canada and Canadians as a manufacturer,
how can we expect our customers to?
