VISTA, Calif., Oct. 20,
2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Eco Building Products, Inc., (PINK:
ECOB) announced today that the Company's Salem, Oregon facility continues
to manufacture Eco Red Shield protected lumber in support
of pre-fab business bound for Hawaii via Blazer Industries, LLC
operating out of Aumsville,
Oregon. Niche business opportunities for ECOB such
as providing finished goods in support of
the Pre-fab and Modular [Process-Built] Building
Industries allow Eco Red Shield protected lumber products to find
their way into multiple market sectors around the globe. Eco
continues to expand more into this market and now has a full-time
Technical Representative calling on the Modular Factories in the
Pacific Northwest. Blazer Industries is a modular builder that
specializes in high use buildings such as schools, medical
facilities, and government offices. Typically, Blazer's buildings
ship to locations throughout the continental U.S. as well as
Alaska and Hawaii; many of which require special care in
terms of termite, fire, and fungicidal treatment.
Charlie Nichols, LEED-AP BD&C
of Blazer Industries commented that "Using the Eco Red Shield
product allows us to provide the protection needed without
compromising the quality of our buildings since we need
protection on the whole building. Traditional pressure
treating processes tends to produce a significant quantity of
unusable lumber and reduction in engineering values. For us,
incorporating the Eco Red Shield product into our value stream has
reduced our amount of culled lumber and eliminated delays due to
high moisture content in the wood. Environmental
stewardship and sustainability are important to all of us at Blazer
Industries. As a LEED AP, I am concerned with the type of raw
materials we use in our buildings as well as the processes we
incorporate. The Eco Red Shield treatment method is a good fit for
us because it adds sustainability to our products with minimal
impact on the environment. Additionally, with Eco Red Shield, we
have better control of our material costs and production
waste."
Steve Conboy, President &
Chief Executive Officer noted that "This Modular business is good
business for us at Eco, and we are now landing SPF and OSB in
support of the factories operating in the northeast. While this
Modular business only represents a portion of customers we are
gaining, it speaks to the very nature and versatility of this
eco-friendly protected lumber product and our national footprint
that is now getting recognized by many. Being that the Founders of
Eco have a background well versed in the handling of lumber, and
the fact that our products are 'Safe Around Children and in
Schools', it's not just a slogan; it's a reality for our customers
and employees as well. This change toward lumber protection that is
safe to handle doesn't happen overnight. Spend some time reading up
on the history of treated lumber and you will have a better
understanding that Eco's Advanced Framing Lumber was meant for the
whole house."
