New Products

On Wednesday we visited the TOPS show at the Vancouver Convention Centre. The show features booths from our suppliers in the industry.

Lots of new things, and some really awesome products. Here I will highlight a few of the pieces that we find interesting:

The To-Go Tumbler:

We've all seen it, from the shelves in Chapters to our own catalogues, but this reusable "paper cup" is unique in that it is not made with ceramics and silicone.

The To-Go tumbler takes the ceramic paper mug concept and turned it into something more practical. The tumbler is made with SAN (Styrene Acrylonitrile) plastic, the same kind of plastic that is used to make your plastic cutlery or toothbrush and it won't break as easily as ceramic. They are obviously much lighter as well. Currently, brown is the most popular colour.


The Clench Tumbler

This one has been long awaited. Finally, we have a wider selection of double walled 18-8 stainless steel tumblers in the lower price ranges for us to browse through. 18-8 Japanese stainless steel is a standard that you don't want to go below, and every part of this tumbler has been tested through and through and FDA approved for food safety. Also comes in black.



The Visions Sport Duffel

Solid construction, good size, high visibility, great durability - this duffel seems to have it all. Better yet, it comes decorated at under $15 each! In fact, you might even be able to get it for as low as $10.49.

The bag is made with 600D polyester and features a large zippered main compartment, side ventilated shoe pocket, front zippered pocket, one mesh beverage holder and a side mesh utility pocket.
The LED Roadside Safety Light

The special feature on this flashlight is not visible from this picture, but if you ask we can provide a sample. The end of this flashlight is a very powerful magnet so that you can stick the whole thing on top of your car on the roadside when you encounter an emergency. There are LED lights all along the side of the flashlight as well as at the tip in the standard location.

Very hefty, very practical.


What else is there? We've got ceramic knife sets and great BBQ sets that will go great with summer promotions. But more on that next time - please call if you want to know more - it's a pleasure for us to answer your questions. Phone: 604-277-5886.
