February 21st, 2017 – Our Pancake Lunch was a hit!
With the help of our awesome staff, pancakes and bacon were provided in exchange for a small donation to assist two local charities. One employee also contributed homemade dog treats to help raise monies.
Together our staff raised $449! Albarrie matched this amount so we could donate to both the Barrie SPCA and Finding Them Homes. To make a donation or to help either of these great organisations, click a button below to be redirected.
Employees were encouraged to attend Chappell Farms’ Fall Festival to enjoy quality time with their families. Many great activities were enjoyed: a haunted house, pumpkin picking, magic shows, baby animals, face painting, a jumping castle, wagon rides, a corn maze, sand play area, tricycle track, bale run, trains, and more!
We celebrated our work family, good friends, great BBQ, our nation, and raffled prizes at our annual Canada Day BBQ! A day to honor and recognise the service and dedication of our current and former employees.

Several times a year Albarrie hosts internal fundraiser events. Food is prepared by management and staff on special holidays with the intent to collect money for various local charities. The tacos and nachos for Cinco de Mayo in addition to the tea and treats for Mother’s Day, raised $300 amongst employees.
Albarrie matched the $300 for a total donation of $600 to the Barrie SPCA. To contribute to this special organisation, please click either button below to be redirected.
December 10th, 2015 – was a day of reciprocity for the Albarrie family. Each employee was given one free run turkey to share with his or her family as a token of appreciation for everyone’s hard work and dedication in 2015; but the generosity didn’t stop there. The gift of giving spread, sparking the innate desire to pay it forward. A group of employees donated their turkeys to the less fortunate so they could enjoy a traditional turkey dinner over the Holidays. A total of 12 turkeys were donated: six turkeys were delivered to the Salvation Army Bayside Center, matching the six turkeys sent to the Women & Children’s Shelter in Barrie, ON.
December 23rd, 2015 – the Albarrie organization will be donating unwrapped toys and imperishable food items to the Christmas Cheer Foundation in Barrie, ON. Employees have contributed to this initiative during several holiday events and will continue to over the course of December, including our holiday potluck on the 15th. We’re grateful that we can give back to the community we care for.
We encourage everyone who can help, to donate food, toys, or clothes to men and women who are unable to provide for their families this year. For more information on how to donate to the Christmas Cheer Foundation, visit: www.christmascheerbarrie.com/donate-drop-off-locations/
Our commitment to sustainability is integrated into every one of our products. We’ve made it our mission to recognize and respond to the approaching pressures of climate change. Our products contribute to the improvement of our environment by reducing waste, protecting against spills and keeping impurities out of our air and water.
Our permeable, oil-immobilizing smart fabrics are a new green technology. They eliminate the need for energy-hungry pump and treat systems and significantly reduce environmental impacts associated with an oil spill by protecting water, land and wildlife from potential oil contamination or exposure. Our proprietary polymer blends are non-toxic, non-hazardous and environmentally friendly and can even be burned for fuel after they have been consumed.
Our seamless felt tubes reduce the incidence of scratches and damage during the manufacture of aluminum products, which in turn reduces the need to remelt and remanufacture – significantly saving energy.
Our air filtration components and dust collection systems keep particulates and greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere, helping us all breathe easier.
As a company, we have committed ourselves to continually improve the efficiency with which we use our resources. We specifically source our materials only from companies with a good environmental record and the highest level of integrity.
Our commitment to a secure and sustainable future extends to our customers’ businesses too. Our custom-made fabrics deliver higher performance and reduce the chances of containment failure and spills, while our expert maintenance services help extend the life of our products, which reduces energy costs and waste and benefits our customers’ bottom lines. In addition, our insistence on sourcing materials from domestic suppliers helps promote job stability and protection.
