John G. Horeth, the founder of Dynamic Fluid Products Inc., established a strong reputation as a stocking distributor for Parker Brass, Nopak Fluid Products, Snowden Rubber and Dixon Valve. Later, the company expanded to include Parker Fluid Connectors, Parker Quick Couplings, Parker Tube Fittings and Parker Fluid Power Products. Born and raised in the Tillsonburg area, Horeth familiarized himself with hydraulic and pneumatic cylinder manufacturing before opening his own company in 1987.

Know Our History
Started in Tillsonburg, Ontario
Dynamic Fluid Products began as a sole proprietorship specializing in the fluid power.
Expanded to 7,000 sq. ft. facility
DFP outgrew its first location and took the plunge, moving to the larger Spruce Street location in Tillsonburg. Business steadily grew at their sublet offices, so much so that the 1,200 square foot unit was expanded to 7,000 square feet. The larger space accommodated a 3,000 square foot stock room and a 3,000 square foot manufacturing and repair facility.
Incorporated
November 1, 1991: At that time we employed eleven full-time staff, including four licensed millwrights and one apprentice, in two locations, Tillsonburg and Stratford. Our customers were pleased that Parker-Hannifin products were available in both locations; a local distributor reduced wait times and provided easy access to technical expertise. DFP specialized in hydraulics and pneumatics, which gained the company market share within the industry. The company strongly supported Parker products, well known in the industry for nine of the past eleven years.
The Parker Store
Parker approached DFP about a new marketing strategy, The Parker Store. Parker's new strategy was to have more of their products displayed on shelves accessible to customers, making it easier to find the right products for any fluid power application. In order to accommodate this concept, DFP moved to its present location on Cedar Street. The new retail style with increased inventory levels has been beneficial for our customers and our service team to assist our customers in a timely manner.
Diamond Team
DFP was awarded the prestigious Parker Diamond Team award that is annually presented to the best performing distributors in North America.
3,000 sq. ft. addition
1999 DFP had already grown enough to require more space. A 3,000 square foot addition was built onto the original 5,000 square foot building. The extra space was used for increases in manufacturing of hydraulic power units, extruded aluminium products and general repairs.
Diamond Team Again
DFP was again awarded the prestigious Parker Diamond Team award that is annually presented to the best performing distributors in North America.
ISO 9001 Registration
DFP successfully obtained ISO 9001 certification, demonstrating our commitment to quality management and customer satisfaction. By adhering to the rigorous requirements set forth by ISO 9001, we aim to continually enhance our processes, improve efficiency, and deliver superior products and services to our valued customers.
Warehouse Addition
By 2016 DFP’s customer base had grown to the point where more space was needed to house the inventory required to serve them. The extra space and racking was put in to give us more flexibility while allowing us to keep things all under one roof.
TSSA Installer
DFP met all of TSSA’s B31.1 Power Piping and B31.3 Process Piping Audit requirements, giving us our Certificate of Authorization to install and certify piping systems.
CRN FRL
DFP met all of TSSA’s requirements and received CRN approval to assemble the only Parker 1” Air Prep Unit. Inventory was brought in so that these could be assembled to serve our customer base out of stock.
New ERP
DFP transitioned to a state of the art ERP system that allows us to serve out customers more accurately and efficiently.
Provide customer-friendly service
DFP has continued successfully as a Parker Store. The company's goal, as always, is to provide customer friendly service. DFP currently employs 23 people, including management, sales, service, certified fluid power technicians, and office personnel. We all work together to help our customers. The majority of Dynamic Fluid Products' customers are based in South-western Ontario. We have the capability to deliver but we also enjoy interacting face to face with all of our local customers. Please come in and see us and we would be proud to serve all of your fluid power needs.
