REVEAL – A NEW BRIGHTER, MORE FUNCTIONAL BATHROOM!

Fortunately for both Kestle Interiors and our clients, we have remained unaffected by the ongoing Canada-US Trade War.
Our cabinetry is manufactured in Sherbrooke, Quebec by Cuisine Idéale. Cuisine Idéale’s recent factory expansion ensures their domestic supply remains stable and highly competitive against tariff-impacted U.S. alternatives.
Our main supplier of sinks, faucets, or shower systems, Vogt Industries, is also a Canadian company. They use high-quality components and materials sourced from around the world (including Swiss mechanics, German tooling, and global manufacturing partners), but since they are not a U.S.-manufactured brand, they completely bypass the retaliatory tariffs.
Richelieu is our regular supplier of hardware. A substantial portion of their catalog—including high-end functional items like hinges, slides, and decorative pulls—is imported from premium global manufacturing hubs (such as Europe/Italy and Asia). Because their inventory does not primarily originate from U.S. manufacturing plants, they bypass the heavy cross-border retaliatory tariffs targeted strictly at American-made goods
Richelieu owns four manufacturing plants inside Canada. These local facilities focus primarily on specialty wood components, such as veneer sheets, edge-banding, and decorative mouldings
As far as quartz and granite for countertops & full-height backsplashes are concerned, Canada’s Border Services Agency has no active trade restrictions or counter-tariffs on imported quartz or solid-stone slabs. The vast majority of quartz companies in Canada import raw engineered stone slabs from global hubs (like Italy, China, or India) and simply cut, polish, and shape them locally for your kitchen
Whether the quartz slab is imported from Europe, Asia, or manufactured locally, buying it from a Canadian retailer or fabricator means there are no cross-border trade war penalties added.
There are very few facilities that actually mix the raw resin and quartz crystals to manufacture the physical slabs inside Canada. The most prominent example is HanStone Quartz, which operates a major manufacturing plant in London, Ontario. Slabs poured at this facility are genuinely Canadian-made and completely clear of U.S. safeguard trade duties.
