Columbia engineers, designs, manufacturers and assembles Columbia tools at their headquarters in Langley, British Columbia Canada. Everything they do is done in-house which ensures the highest quality. The origin of the components are US Steel mills, US Aluminum mills, and other US manufactures in the Cable, Blade , Spring and Rubber industries. Columbia tools' product origin is over 90% US with the remainder coming from Japan and Canada. AllWall knows that once you use a Columbia tool, you will easily identify key differences in quality and value. As Columbia Taping Tools, Canada says:
"The next benefit you will notice will be 10 years later when the tool is still performing great and Columbia is there to back it up."
A big misconception. All we can advise is for you to consider a slightly weaker dollar when converting; consider GST and Customs fees once in the country; and consider freight from that country. Finally, consider the future back up of your tools. Warranty would need to be related back through to the store you bought it from. If from America, then you would need to sort it out through that store.
