Argus Industries

Story by Derek Gagnon

While Argus Industries has enjoyed a long but steady road to success, you might be surprised to know how the business started out.

Before becoming the leader in manufacturing that it has become, before even adopting the name ‘Argus’, the company sold portable and chemical toilets when it started in 1962. Bill Easton purchased the company from the original owners, when there were only five employees. The potential was seen that the rubber side of the business had lots of room for growth.

Michael Easton is the president and CEO of Argus Industries, having taken over from his father Bill in November of 2009.
