Despite facing the same challenges as its fellow tire industry counterparts during the COVID-19 pandemic, MARTINS INDUSTRIES felt the need to get involved in its local community.

Last week, the company donated 5,000 safety masks to the city of Farnham, where its head office is located. The masks will be distributed to municipal employees as well as to organizations that provide essential services to citizens in surrounding areas.

When events like these happen, you just want to make sure as a company that you do your part as a member of your community.

— Martin Depelteau, President, Martins Industries

“The workers that are still out there on the frontline to provide essential services so that we can still function as a society are the real warriors here. The least we can do is to support them in every way we can, and we are hoping that these masks are going to make them feel safer,” wished Depelteau.

In the meantime, Martins Industries wants to reassure its partners and customers that the company remains fully operational and continues on taking orders both directly as well as online.
