Massive Plant Upgrade Puts Flooring Manufacturer on Solid Growth Course
From wulftec.com
If getting to the top of the ladder in the North American building products business means not letting the competition walk all over you, then you can’t get much better living proof of this truism than Uniboard Canada Inc. Founded in 1982, the Quebec-based company has grown in impressive strides—fueled by a series of bold expansions and acquisitions—to become Canada’s largest, and North America’s third-largest, manufacturer of laminate flooring for the residential marketplace. With revenues of over $600 million last year, the company today operates seven manufacturing facilities to produce a diversified range of high-quality raw particleboard, medium-density fiberboard (MDF), high-density fiberboard (HDF), and thermofused melamine panels and laminate flooring products.
 


Products & Services
Phenolic, melamine and formaldehyde resins are thermosetting adhesives that offer strong bonds and good resistance to high temperatures.
Cleanroom equipment includes furniture, tools and other equipment for use in clean rooms.
Protective liners and lining systems protect an underlying surface from corrosion, wear, erosion, heat or fire. They may also provide leak protection or fluid containment.
Toroidal transformers typically consist of copper wire wrapped around a cylindrical core. This design prevents the magnetic flux that occurs within the coil from leaking.
Building supplies include concrete, glass, wood stock forms, pre-fabricated components and other supplies for building and construction applications.
