Local all the way! We believe that minimizing environmental costs and maintaining high standards are more important than profit margins. With strict criteria for quality, we use the environmentally friendliest materials available and work with Canadian suppliers who share our values.
We also use state-of-the-art technology to create the thinnest, strongest, hardest canoes and kayaks possible, so you can spend more time seeking adventure and less time worrying about wear and tear.
Because we know that all paddlers don't have the same needs, we offer our boats in two durable layups. The bare bones are the same: we create composite canoes and kayaks using Kevlar and carbon-Kevlar with a resin to hold the fabric in place. The resin makes the hull watertight and also provides flexibility and stability.
It also makes them super durable and easy to repair. With a little bit of love and simple maintenance, your kayak or canoe should be good to pass on to the next generation of nature lovers.
As it's our love for the wilderness that keeps us going, it only makes sense that we manufacture our products in a way that's environmentally sustainable. We construct our canoes with the best quality local materials, not just supporting the Canadian economy, but also reducing our footprint on the environment by saving fuel due to transportation We also use state-of-the-art technology that enables us to create the thinnest, strongest, hardiest canoes possible, so you can spend more time seeking adventure and less time worrying about wear and tear. We're a proudly Canadian company with a promise to do everything we can to save our pristine natural environment for future generations. So when you buy a Scott canoe from abitibi&co, know that it's not just quality you're investing in, but also the commitment to protect and restore our waterways, and help share this natural wonder with all Canadians.
In the event that your boat or kayak suffers a severe blow, we will always be there to repair it.

Fiberglass
We have a soft spot for fiberglass canoes. Though they're slightly heavier than Kevlar laminate, they are extremely durable, and the most economical choice. We've been producing fiberglass canoes since 1965, so we've certainly had time to refine and improve on our designs and processes.
Standard Kevlar
If weight's an issue, then Kevlar is definitely the way to go. This is our most popular laminate, and for good reason. Like our fiberglass canoes, the hull is rigid with a gentle flex. Both durable and lightweight, it's a fantastic choice for gung-ho trippers and idle paddlers alike.
