Eco Building Products Expands Manufacturing Capabilities Into Salem, Oregon
ECOB Launches Expansion of a Mega Coating Facility in Salem, Oregon
VISTA, Calif., Nov. 2, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Eco Building™ Products, Inc., (OTCBB: ECOB) announced today the company has signed a five year lease to set up a mega coating facility in Salem, Oregon USA. This facility strategically located in the heart of the timber producing corridor is approximately 30,000 square feet located on a railway spur. The company plans to occupy a portion of the facility to start by deploying two coating lines with the provisions to expand up to 8 coating lines.
Salem, Oregon is a very strategic location allowing ECOB the ability to purchase timber products from various lumber mills in the local corridor from Northern Washington State to Southern Oregon. ECOB plans to produce full unit quantities of protected lumber products for shipment destined to all our wholesale lumber positions in various markets across the USA. The Salem location will allow the company the ability to strategically manage supply chain minimizing the impact of freight costs. The company plans to have the facility producing production products by the end of November 2011.
"After a lot of due diligence we found an ideal location and relationship to allow ECOB the ability to continue execution of our original plan, getting protected lumber to all markets at a cost effective price making it harder and harder for anyone to consider using unprotected lumber. We will have the ability to purchase direct from the largest lumber mills in the world that are growing trees in our backyard, apply our coatings and supply our entire USA infrastructure without adding freight costs. This facility provides ECOB with rail car access and plenty of room for expansion," stated Steve Conboy, President and CEO of Eco Building Products
"This is a significant move towards total supply chain management reducing the overall impact of coating costs," added Steve Conboy.
