The Canadian Shield Price Guarantee Policy

As the market for personal protective equipment and rapid tests in Canada fluctuates, The Canadian Shield remains committed to offering reliable products at affordable prices. Should our own prices be reduced, you can request a price guarantee within 15 calendar days of purchase. For eligible orders, The Canadian Shield will match the reduced price on your order and refund you the difference.

To request a price guarantee, please contact our Customer Support team using this form. All price adjustments will be credited to the original payment method. Alternatively, the value of a price adjustment may also be refunded in the form of a credit for future online purchases.

After submitting your request, our Customer Support team will process all eligible Price Guarantee credits within 3-5 business days. The original date of your order and submission of the Price Guarantee request will be used to determine the Price Guarantee eligibility.

Please note, The Canadian Shield is not currently offering a price match guarantee for third-party retailers. The Canadian Shield Price Guarantee is only applicable for products found on www.canadianshieldppe.ca and will only be honoured within 15 days from the original purchase date.

Process of honouring a Price Guarantee:

  2. If customer calls or inquiries about online prices being reduced, they are to be directed to fill out Customer Support form on website
