...is not just our motto, it's our inspiration to help Canadian designers create amazing products with 3D technology
Javelin Essentials
Founded in 1997
More than 4,000 Canadian businesses use our 3D design applications and services to create amazing products that improve efficiency, safety, medical care, and the environment.
Javelin has been around since 1997. Our company had its beginnings in Oakville, Ontario with a partnership between Ted Lee and John Carlan — a classic Canadian start-up story that began over coffee meetings at a Tim Horton’s.
A Canadian Business
Javelin is firmly rooted in communities all across Canada, with six offices operating in six time zones. And beyond our Canadian borders, we are known all over the world as one of the best in our industry.
In 2017, Canadian Business and PROFIT named Javelin as one of the Fastest-Growing Information Technology Companies on the PROFIT 500 list.

Our Customers
Design and build amazing products with industry leading 3D technology
Designers & Engineers
Currently there are 5,500+ Canadian designers and engineers using our SOLIDWORKS 3D design software to create better products.
We support a variety of industries including aerospace, alternative energy, automotive, construction, consumer products, medical, manufacturing, oil & gas, and plant & process.
Makers & Manufacturers
Every Canadian manufacturing company can revolutionize the way they design their products by utilizing a 3D printer to create prototypes and end-use parts from 3D models.
Digital manufacturing is where the world is headed and with a Stratasys 3D Printer your business can become more agile and deliver cost-effective products faster.
Students & Educators
In recent years, we have focused heavily on our customers in education. At one time that focus was almost entirely on post-secondary classrooms.
Today, more and more teachers and students at the high school level consider access to SOLIDWORKS and 3D printing to be essential in preparing students for further education and the workforce.
