History

Ferndale Safety's journey began in 1971 with the establishment of its predecessor, Ferndale Machinery, during a period of manufacturing boom. Founded by an enterprising businessman, Joe Mandla, the company initially focused on meeting the need for quality machine tools. Starting its operations in a modest residential garage in Montreal-North, Ferndale Machinery initially engaged in the sales and service of machine tools.[3]

In 2015, the company underwent a significant transformation, adopting a fresh logo and a new name and expanding its warehouse facilities. The workforce expanded significantly, growing from just four employees to more than twelve. This diverse team includes specialists in machine safety, technicians skilled in field installation, engineers, designers, and fabricators. Notably, their fabrication shop is equipped with machinery safeguarded using the company's safety products.[4]
