Duron Ontario,Ontario, Canada Canadian construction company urges public, policymakers, and industry to value fair wages, quality materials, and craftsmanship

Duron Ontario Ltd., a trusted name in Canadian construction since 1959, is using its latest feature interview to spotlight a growing concern: the skilled trades shortage and the need to value the people and materials that make infrastructure last.

According to BuildForce Canada, 257,000 construction workers are set to retire by 2032. At the same time, housing and infrastructure demands are increasing across the country. Duron warns that pushing for cheaper, faster builds can lead to safety risks, costly rework, and premature failures.

As one of the few Certified Living Wage Employers in the construction industry, Duron Ontario has built its reputation on unionized labour, technical precision, and tested innovation. Their latest material, DuroMastic - a polymer-modified mastic asphalt proven in Europe - has shown exceptional durability in Canadian conditions, lasting over eight years in high-traffic areas like the Toronto Eaton Centre without major repairs.

Duron's decades of experience reinforce their belief that quality infrastructure starts with respecting the trades. Early in their history, a project using a cheaper waterproofing material failed within two years - a costly lesson that still guides their standards today.

What People Can Do

Duron Ontario encourages individuals and communities to:

• Value skilled trades as essential, respected careers.

• Hire companies committed to fair wages and high standards.

• Ask questions about project materials, labour conditions, and long-term quality.

• Encourage youth to explore trades as stable, rewarding professions.

“We don't just build structures. We help build communities,” the spokesperson said.“Everyone can play a part in making sure those communities are built to last.”
