B is for Benefit
With Vancouver Film Studios leading the way, we have dedicated ourselves to becoming a better business; for our employees, our customers, and the rest of the world.
But what does that even mean, to be a better business? We're on a mission to find out exactly what that is, and being a Certified B Corporation is part of that mission.
How We're Doing It
Here's just a few of the things we're doing to promote a healthy workplace, community, and world! Want to see more? Check out our full B Lab assessment with Vancouver Film Studios here.

Expendable, but never dispensable.
For all those little extras your production couldn't run without.
Little extras,
big impact.
Need tape? We got you. Gels? Check! Cube Taps? No problem. We even have LED Tape in every colour temperature imaginable and RGB.
We also now have SANITIZING GEAR! Everything you need to keep your set clean and safe. Our lineup includes hand sanitizing gel, disinfectant wipes, and more, so just ask! You can also check out our Locations Page for sanitizing equipment available to rent.
Whatever you need, we got your back, so talk to one of our rental coordinators today about adding expendables to your production order!
