We Are:

ETEROS

 

OUR STORY

Eteros’ founder Aaron McKellar started his career in the marine industry, owning and operating a boat repair and custom boat manufacturing business in Surrey, British Columbia. Over time his interests in manufacturing expanded outside the marine industry, and his belief in “reshoring” jobs back to Canada led him to found Eteros in 2016. Eteros began with a strong engineering foundation, focused on innovation and building superior quality products. Starting with a core group of expert engineers and mechanical designers from diverse backgrounds, it didn’t take long for Eteros’ slogan to become “Divergent Thinking”, as we strive to put a unique, outside-the-box spin on everything we do.

Aaron found a custom manufacturing partner in Ontario whose core values were very much in line with those of Eteros. In 2019, after a year and a half of working closely together, we merged to form a bigger and even more capable custom manufacturing firm with presence across the nation.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

We are driven by innovation, creativity, and making the impossible a reality

We love to surprise our customers with unexpected thoughtfulness in all our products.  Our marketers never have to lie or exaggerate; we require our products to be truly great.

    WE REJECT MEDIOCRITY.   

Our philosophy extends beyond product design.  From production to marketing to accounting, we strive to think outside the box regarding all aspects of our company.  Everyone at Eteros is expected to challenge existing procedures, suggest a better way, and drive it home.  Our open door policy and our transparent, honest management style makes being heard easy, not intimidating.  We don’t wear suits.  We dislike formalities.  We are not afraid to roll up our sleeves.

Our philosophy applies both internally and externally, as we exude the same values towards our customers and vendors.  We actively seek feedback and open dialogue to create sincere relationships and products that solve real problems.

CORE
VALUES

01.
ACCOUNTABILITY
If we say we are going to do something, we do it! This applies not only as an internal company value, but also outward facing, interacting with our customers and vendors. We believe consistent accountability builds trust and strong relationships, internally as a team, and externally as a brand.
02.
GRIT
Giving up is not in our nature. We know that tough problems present obstacles and that every obstacle is an opportunity to learn something new. We understand that having the grit to persevere though an obstacle gives us greater satisfaction when we succeed!
03.
INGENUITY
We delight in providing our customers with thoughtful, often surprising product features and design. Not only reserved for product design, we come up with creative solutions for every facet of our company – from paperwork to production line, marketing to product features – everything can (and should!) be improved upon.
04.
INITIATIVE
At Eteros, you will never hear anyone say “that’s not my job”. From small things, like tidying up the kitchen or answering a ringing phone, to bigger things, like counting inventory when it’s crunch time, we help each other out without being asked. When time allows, we actively seek out small or big ways to impact the efficiency of our daily tasks.
05.
RESPECT
We respect each other by being genuine and helpful. Our open door policy and our transparent and honest management style makes being heard easy, not intimidating. We dislike formalities. We all work together. We respect each other’s contributions. We check our egos at the door.

(r)evolutionary innovation + killer service = divergent thinking
