Commercial-quality cookware, bakeware & tools at value pricing
SignatureWares is the exclusive smallwares line from Russell Hendrix, created to give Canadian kitchens commercial-quality gear at a price they can actually stock. From aluminum and stainless cookware to bun pans, cutting boards, pizza paddles, and tools, this collection is built for busy professional operations that need dependable equipment without paying premium-brand prices.
Every item is sized for foodservice – true GN/steam table pan depths, pro diameters, and capacities that fit standard racks, shelves, and wells. Whether you run a neighbourhood café, a high-volume restaurant, a school, or a multi-unit chain, SignatureWares makes it easier to standardize your smallwares program, simplify reordering, and stay within budget.
Shop aluminum cookware for fast, even heat, stainless steel for non-reactive simmering and braising, and non-stick fry pans where easy release matters most. Round out your line with full- and half-size bun pans, cutting and paddle boards, pizza tools, digital timers, thermometers, flatware, and more – all chosen to handle daily prep, cook, and serve duties in Canadian commercial kitchens.
Because SignatureWares is exclusive to Russell Hendrix, you get consistent SKUs, clear spec sheets, and reliable stock across the country. Build out a complete back-of-house toolkit, replenish par levels, or outfit a new opening with one value-driven program that’s easy for buyers, chefs, and managers to trust.
