There are a lot of compelling reasons to buy products made in Canada. They range from the reduction of environmental impact to the preservation of local jobs and the overall economy. As consumers, however, we don’t always think about how our buying decisions affect the communities we live in. Many of us tend to look for lower-priced products made outside of Canada and opt to save money instead of invest in high-quality items made locally.
When COVID-19 took hold, that mindset started to change. Canadians became more conscious of where products were coming from and started letting patriotism guide their purchasing decisions. It’s a positive trend that needs to continue, whether you’re buying a dining room set or a dust collector.
Why Shop For A Dust Collector In Canada?
When you buy your dust collector from a Canadian company, the benefit goes well beyond the profits realized by the business. You can rest assured that you are getting a product that-
- Meets this country’s high health and safety standards. The Canadian manufacturing industry is highly regulated, so all dust collectors made here come from factories where quality assurance practices are superior and only the best materials are used.
- Reduces your carbon footprint, as locally-built products don’t have to be transported as far. Less gas used means better environmental quality.
- Was made in a facility where the employees are treated fairly and enjoy safe and sanitary working conditions, unlike those working in sweatshop conditions overseas.
- Supports your community. When you shop for a dust collector in Canada, you contribute to the ongoing prosperity of a Canadian-owned and operated business, and keep local people employed.
- Lets you avoid the hidden additional costs of duties and import fees. Plus, you receive the equipment much sooner.
- Has local aftermarket support if you encounter any difficulties.
Buying Canadian also has a direct and positive impact on our economy. Every dollar you spend here has a ripple effect: you participate in the creation and support of local manufacturing jobs, which employ workers who pay taxes and spend money that maintains a healthy local, provincial, and national economy.
