Today is Inventor's Day!


Today is National Inventor's Day in the US and we would like to take this day to highlight the importance of inventiveness and creativity.

The date this day is celebrated on varies by nation. In the United States, this day falls on the the birthday of Thomas A. Edison, one of the greatest and most famous inventors of all time. While we are Canadians, we felt the importance of joining the celebrations of this particular day.

Canadians are inventive in nature, and Canada is/was the home to many famous inventors for whom we can credit inventions that we couldn't imagine our lives without. For example, Alexander Graham Bell had his original Telephone patent issued way back in 1876, while Ginger Ale was invented by pharmacist John McLaughlin in 1907. Check out an article published by CBC outlining 16 amazing things invented by Canadians - from Insulin to garbage bags!


The Omachron family of companies have developed over 500 patents so we live and cherish innovation and invention every day so this day is particularly close to our hearts. We develop "Sustainable technologies for a better future™" every day.

For example, Omachron, a Canadian company invented and manufactures the compact, energy efficient injection molding machines which make Plasti-Block™ parts. Here is a link to just one of the pending patents covering this amazing innovation.

Plasti-Block™ brand created bundles to support inventors and makers in their path to innovation and hope that we can be a small part of your success by providing reliable, quality products.
