Originally built on a farm in Oro-Medonte, Pushing Inc. moved to Barrie’s Dunlop Street in 1993, as the result of increasing popularity. Following the devastating Five Points Fire in December, 2007, Pushing Inc. relocated to Rose Street.

As of January 2012, we have a new shop that is situated on a beautiful suburban street just up the hill from Barrie’s Downtown. Like our clients, we love the roomy, bright and comfortable atmosphere we’ve established at the studio. Our studio is Health Department inspected and certified. We are presently scheduling appointments via phone and/or e-mail.

The safety and comfort of our clients is our top priority. Pushing Inc. is one of a handful of studios that has worked with the Health Boards in Ontario to help develop the inspection and cleanliness standards we have today. Pushing Inc. is also certified in Infection Control and Bloodbourne Pathogens. Our studio is noted for its extreme cleanliness. We take every precaution that is available to us, so that there are no risks to our customers. We use single-use ink caps and razors, steri-packs, autoclaved single use needles, tubes and tools, and fully set-up and tear-down for each tattoo in front of the client. Everything is plastic wrapped and all surfaces are sanitized and disinfected after every tattoo.

The dedication and talent of our artists is easy to see. Ranked one of the best tattoo shops in Barrie, our pieces have been known to stand the test of time, which means your tattoo will still look incredible once it heals and stay looking incredible for years to come.

We look forward to working with you at Pushing Inc.
