OUR COMPANY

Guardian Chemicals Inc. is an independent Canadian owned company specializing in the development, manufacturing and marketing of a vast range of specialty chemicals for the industrial sector. Established in 1961, Guardian's long established reputation for excellence is founded on a commitment to the principals of QUALITY, SERVICE and CONTINUOUS PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT.

FOCUS ON QUALITY

Guardian believes QUALITY is best defined in terms of People, Product and Service. Our commitment to quality was demonstrated when we became the first ever specialty chemical company to qualify for the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) Quality Control Certification under specification Z.299-4-1979. Again we demonstrated our commitment to quality when we were issued our certification to ISO 9002:1994 on April 6, 2000, and again for certification to ISO 9001:2000 on April 7, 2003.

For Guardian, quality is an ongoing process and we owe our success to resolving problems and providing meaningful service based on our customer's needs. Our mission is to continually improve our products and service and to have our name represent quality to our vendors, customers and ourselves.

ENVIRONMENTAL

Guardian Chemicals has completed the necessary product development and formal registration process required for Green Seal certification. Our objective is to provide our customers with an environmentally responsible option that meets standards set by Green Seal.

We are proud to display our Green Seal certification on all our E Series products.

We have always taken a proactive approach to develop products that pose minimal environmental risk and support our commitment to the environment with our registration to ISO 14001:2004 (Environmental Management System) effective July 18, 2006.

Our decision to seek Green Seal certification for a number of products and certification to ISO 14001:2004 give our customers the confidence and assurance that can only be provided by external environmental standards and auditing systems.

HEALTH & SAFETY

Guardian employs between 50 and 55 people making good health and safety essential. It is because of this belief that we applied and received certification as of May 12, 2009 for OHSAS 18001:2007 as a way of showing that we take our duties seriously. OHSAS 18001 is an international standard giving requirements related to health and safety management systems. Combining OHSAS 18001 along with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 ensures that we are moving forward in the right direction with the benefit of a third party helping and overlooking our progress annually.

We pride ourselves on implementing stringent health and safety codes within our company. This significant accreditation would not have been possible without the commitment of our employees and it is a reflection of the sheer hard work, determination and dedication of Guardian staff. It also demonstrates our commitment to gear up for the exciting years ahead. In addition, it helps us demonstrate that our business operates to recognized and accepted high standards of safety in order to ensure legal and regulatory compliance.
