Why are we different?

As with any successful long term business, it is the people who make the difference. The ownership group of Bluewater Pipe believe in business principles based on strong family values, attention to the needs of customers, employees and other stakeholders in the business. With a team of people who have been working together for a long time, Bluewater Pipe has a wealth of skilled and dedicated people to call on.

Product quality, long term product performance, continuous improvement of the business process, and training of the team are ongoing in the business – all important daily actions. For a company with fewer than 30 employees the Bluewater Pipe team punches above its weight in business systems and organization.

An important daily focus of the company are the Health and Safety initiatives; every day that passes without safety incidents adds to the more than 15 years of safe operations. It is a great achievement and a challenge to maintain in a complicated industrial manufacturing facility. The focus and commitment by management and employees allows this record to continue.

The company is active in community fundraising, each year finding a cause to focus on and support. The 2017/18 initiative has been the Drainpink campaign to raise money for Breast Cancer Research.

Bluewater Pipe is a small company with big company capability, a unique team in the Southwestern Ontario drainage pipe manufacturing sector.

Farm Drainage Pipe is the largest market segment Bluewater Pipe sell their products into. With many manufacturers to choose from in Ontario, Bluewater work hard to differentiate themselves with small company personal service and a full product line to support any drainage contractors needs.

Residential and commercial drainage products are typically 4″ and 6″ subdrains. Bluewater Pipe have the full range of products to meet the needs of road construction, housing and retail stores.

Culverts and Storm Drains are a standard product for HDPE doublewall pipe, having been used in Ontario since the late 80’s for municipal drainage. Bluewater Pipe carry all the standard plastic culverts and also offer steel culverts.
