VISTA, Calif., March 3, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Eco Building Products, Inc., (PINK: ECOB) announced today that Eco Red Shield Advanced Framing Lumber and Trusses have been selected by the Gary Sinise Foundation for a Veteran's new residence to be built by Carrington Development in Fallbrook, CA.

The Fallbrook area has been known for wildfires over the past few years, losing dozens of homes in the wake. The builder and developer on this project are taking every precaution to build this home with custom construction and the most innovative cutting edge technologies the industry has to offer, all of which are tailored to the needs of these wounded service members. Eco is not making any claims that this house will withstand a firestorm, but we are confident it will be less vulnerable to ignition in the event of wildfire in the vicinity of the home. http://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/Fallbrook-Fire-I15-SR76-Valley-Center-259263991.html

Steve Conboy, President & Chief Executive Officer of Eco Building Products, Inc. stated that "After speaking with a representative from the Carrington Development group last week, it became clear that no corners will be cut when building these homes in support of the Gary Sinise Foundation and their mission. Our Advanced Framing Lumber will only add a greater degree of resilience to the home because the difference between framing with raw lumber versus Eco Red Shield is like using aluminum wire versus copper wire. As we now campaign across the country with Architects, the reception has been all positive. The claims against raw, wet lumber are growing, and Eco Red Shield now offers the builder another layer of protection in mold claims and litigation. I spoke to the Carrington Development representative about building more houses with them going forward, as we are honored to work with such a great organizations helping our returning wounded Veterans get into homes that are built to suit their needs. We hope to meet Staff Sergeant Jason Ross and the rest of the Team contributing to this project."

ECOB's products are the perfect fit for these smart homes as the Company continues to raise the bar on how we build wood-framed buildings; especially now with fire being such a hot topic.  http://newscience.ul.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/30/2014/04/NS_FS_Journal_Issue_11.pdf
