Our Story

When Wigdor (Victor) Schultz immigrated to Canada in 1926 and started a small fur trim manufacturing business, he could never have anticipated how the company would grow and evolve over the decades. His son Albert took over the business in the 1950’s, dramatically changing the company’s path in 1969 when he introduced the wool duster – the DUST WAND – to the janitorial industry. Now well into our third generation, under the guidance of Myron Schultz (Albert’s son) and Melvyn Pollins, we have dedicated ourselves to providing the Jan-San industry with the finest in maintenance products; building a name synonymous with performance, quality, service and selection. Our reputation as an industry leader is built on decades of experience, utilizing manufacturing expertise and design ingenuity to bring an ever-expanding line of creative and effective products to the market. Our commitment to the industry is demonstrated by our broad geographic reach, a keen understanding of our customers' businesses, and a product line that meets the needs of the cleaning professionals working on the front lines in offices, hotels, health facilities, airports and homes. And by the way...we still manufacture a tremendous line of comfort products, including slippers, mitts and more.

Nature at Work

The original ‘green’ duster, the DUST WAND wool duster has remained the most recognized name in dusting for more than 5 decades. The natural qualities of wool – the gentle static charge, web of fibers and natural oils – make it uniquely suited for dusting. Alongside our full range of ostrich feathers, our signature DUST WAND line offers the unparalleled combination of superior dusting power and environmentally friendly, sustainable materials. As a prime manufacturer, we have the ability to control all elements of the production process, from the selection of raw materials to packaging, to bring you the world’s very best wool dusters.
