When customers click on a download link for one of our products they see a warning that the file is not commonly downloaded and could be dangerous.

This is a false positive.

Where can we upload our files to be marked as safe by Chrome/Google as we do for all anti-virus vendors?

You can see here how Google does it. Apparently, signing your EXE with a proper trusted (non-self-generated) certificate helps.
