Montreal’s Food Safety Overhaul: How Protection All Ways Keeps You Ahead

Montreal’s food industry—our home base—is in for a shake-up in 2025, and it’s hitting close to home for us at Protection All-ways. Picture a bustling processing plant on the South Shore: workers in gloves and aprons, sanitizing every surface, racing to meet a deadline. That’s the scene as Health Canada’s Safe Food for Canadians Act (SFCA) tightens its grip locally, with stricter sanitation and handling rules rolling out this year.

We’ve been supplying safety gear and packaging solutions from right here in Montreal since 2004, and we’re ready to help you navigate this overhaul with confidence.
The SFCA, launched in 2019, set a national standard for food safety, but 2025 brings a new wave of enforcement in Quebec.
Post-COVID, Montreal’s seen a spike in inspections—think provincial health officers combing through meat plants and bakeries, checking for cross-contamination or sloppy storage. The goal? Safer food from farm to table. For processors, it means more rigorous cleaning schedules, better worker protection, and tighter storage protocols. A single misstep could mean a failed audit, a fine, or worse—product recalls that tank your reputation.

At Protection Allways, we’ve got your back with three key supports. First, our gloves and aprons are designed for food safety, keeping your team shielded during handling—whether it’s raw poultry or fresh dough. Second, our cleaning supplies are built to tackle germs fast, ensuring your facility stays spotless under the microscope of an inspector. Third, our storage bins and stretch wraps prioritize product safety, helping you store goods without risking spoilage or contamination.

Montreal’s changes could signal a broader Canadian trend—Toronto and Vancouver are already tightening up too. This isn’t just about dodging penalties; it’s about building trust with customers who demand quality. With Protection All-ways, you’re not just meeting regulations—you’re setting a standard.

Always check with your local government or authorities to confirm requirements and the status of laws or changes to regulations.
