A. It depends. The netting we buy in bulk is machine made, but the work we do to turn it into nets that meet your needs is done completely by hand!
Q. Are your nets made with Canadian materials?
A. About 80% of the materials we use are made in Canada, 15% in Europe and 5% in Asia.
Q. What are your turnaround times?
A. Some products are in stock, while others must be made to order. We always offer the option of a regular turnaround time or express service.
Q. Do you only offer made-to-measure nets?
A. No, some of our products have standard dimensions, but all of our products can be made to measure.
Q. Why should I choose Filmar over another net supplier?
A. Simply because at Filmar, our priority is always to produce nets of the highest quality possible while making sure to perfectly meet our customers' expectations.
Q. Can I go to your store to see your products?
A. We do not have a store per se, but with an appointment, you can come to the workshop to pick up your order.
Q. Do you sell your products outside of Canada?
A. Of course! We sell all over the world.
Q. Are taxes included in your prices?
A. No, our prices are before taxes. Taxes are added when invoicing depending on the destination.
Q. Does the price of a net depend on its surface area?
A. No, the price of a net is evaluated based on the material used and the production time required. The time is generally a function of the perimeter of the net.
Shipping and Returns
Q. Are shipping costs included in the quote?
A. No. Since it’s difficult for us to predict the dimensions and weight of custom nets, we will confirm the shipping cost once the net is ready.
Q. Do you offer national and international shipping?
A. Of course! We can ship anywhere in Canada, even to the far north. Plus, we ship all over the world.

Q. Can you ship my order to a PO box?
A. No, we cannot ship to PO boxes.
Q. How long will it take to receive my order?
A. It all depends on the carrier, but generally it’s 1-3 business days in Eastern Canada and 4-7 business days in Western Canada. Deadlines may be longer for international shipping.
