Thank you for your business!

Finding industrial supplies for your business requires you to work with qualified specialists to find the highest caliber products at affordable pricing. Our team at Hansler Smith has many years experience in the Ontario industrial supply marketplace and in this latest post, we’ll explain how to select the highest quality products for your needs.

Speak with Teams Directly

One of the first mistakes many industrial company leaders make when choosing products is they simply review the catalogue of a company and then order directly. This may mean they select products that don’t offer the requisite value and performance for their application. It’s the reason it’s so important to work with an industrial supply specialist before choosing the ideal product. A specialist can guide you through the available options and help you make direct comparisons between multiple products. This can then ensure you consolidate your costs as you buy more supplies in the future.

Consider the Delivery Timeline and Costs

When ordering new industrial supply products, make sure you take the delivery process into full consideration. It can take a significant amount of time to get orders in from some of the big names in the industrial supply marketplace, but not when you shop industrial supplies in Ontario with Hansler Smith. Oftentimes companies don’t take this period of time into consideration during the ordering process, and this can mean they’re left without the supplies in their business before the order arrives. Make sure you’re covered for the days the order is being shipped and speak with the team about the delivery timeline to confirm all elements of the process before finalizing the purchase.

Review Sales Carefully

It’s important to take into consideration the periods in the year when new industrial supplies are entering the marketplace. Savvy business owners can reduce their supply costs considerably by placing bulk orders during sale periods to ensure they capitalize on the lower price.

Our team at Hansler Smith are experts in delivering quality industrial supplies at reduced pricing. To learn more about the complete range of options available, call us today.

When people are looking for construction and packaging supplies in Ontario, the adhesive tape isn't always the first thing they think of.  However, the tape is a critical component in just about any packaging, and there are definitely pros and cons to the various types of adhesive tape on the market.  Choosing the right tape for the right job will almost always make that job go more smoothly.

So, we wanted to quickly look at some common types of adhesive tape you can find when buying and what situations they're best suited for.

Picking the Right Tape for the Right Job

1. Paper Tape 

For basic packaging needs, paper tape is one of the traditional go-tos.  It's inexpensive and easy to work with, while still being quite strong.  Different strengths are available, some reinforced with fibers that give the tape even more heft.  This is one of the most common types of tape you'll find in packaging for a reason.

2. Vinyl Tape

Tape made of vinyl is generally used in electrical work, such as this 3M electrical tape.  Vinyl tape is generally not well-suited for shipping purposes or for holding things together for long.  Its glue is too weak to hold up to too much strain and is best suited for wrapping around itself.  Basically, the main thing vinyl tape is good for is as a non-conductive wrap for wiring - and it's great at that.

3. Plastic Tape

Plastic tapes include Scotch Tape, and it's fantastic as a general-purpose tape for holding papers together or repairing small rips. The lack of strength can be something of a benefit since it's often possible to remove plastic tapes from sensitive objects without damaging them. However, it's a poor fit for most other applications, including packaging or any situation where long-term durability is needed.

4. Duct Tape

Duct tape comes in many flavors, including 3M Heavy Duty varieties, and is well-loved by hobbyists and MacGyver’s. The benefit of duct tape is its versatility.  While it’s primary usage is for containment - actually repairing ducts - it is both strong and sticky enough to be used in a huge variety of applications.
