Our Commitment to Canada…
Living Wage Employer
Quintessential Canada is a certified “Living Wage Employer” (2021) and is the Region of Peel’s first private sector company to be certified as such.
A Living Wage Employer is someone who pays all direct and contract staff the living wage rate for their region. Quintessential recognizes that paying a living wage is an investment in individuals, their families and long-term prosperity of the community and greater economy. We believe that we all have a role to play in reducing poverty.

Sustainability, Responsibility and Environmental Stewardship
We source materials from suppliers that support responsible forest management through programs such as the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI), including chain-of-custody practices that trace forest-based products to sustainable sources.
Our boxes are made with eastern white pine—Ontario’s official arboreal emblem—and can be finished with environment friendly natural oils or water-based stains. We do not use paints or lacquers.
We use natural jute handles and biodegradable aspen wood excelsior sourced from suppliers committed to renewable materials and sustainable forestry.
Energy-efficient LED lighting, dual-Y CNC machining, and nesting software help us reduce energy consumption, improve material yield, and minimize production waste.
Our advanced dust-collection system uses variable-frequency controls, automatic blast gates, and a briquetter to conserve energy, reduce dust and waste volume, and maintain a healthier workplace.
We support a safe, positive workplace through machine-safety instruction, hazard-specific policies, appropriate personal protective equipment, and worker health and safety training.
