Quality Standards

Canvas and Tent has created and implemented an Integrated Quality & Environmental Policy to ensure that at all levels of the business we adhere to exceptional standards.

We are committed to producing the highest quality products and at the same time protecting our environment by:

  • Satisfying applicable customer and regulatory requirements
  • Identifying objectives relevant to both quality and environmental management
  • Determining controls that will prevent significant impact of our activities on the environment resulting in pollution, and meet our commitment to protect and enhance the environment.

The quality policy is communicated to all employees at all levels throughout our organization via training, regular internal communications and reinforcement during annual employee performance reviews. The policy is place on the Shared network (Z) for all employees to access and read. Employee understanding of our policies and objectives is determined during internal audits and other methods deemed appropriate.

The Eton System

The method that provides real-time data and information, is used to manufacture our tents.

Benefits include: Improved production quality, reduced throughput times, optimal workflow, and increased design flexibility.
