Add to that, the cost for this protection is a minor line item in the overall build and move-in costs.
"After several years of providing Eco Red Shield protected lumber to custom homebuilders, we are beginning to see the paradigm shift that Steve Conboy has been referring to. Investors of these multi-family residential projects are recognizing the value-added by building with protected lumber; not only with regard to their investments, but more importantly for the safety of their tenants. We are seeing the domino effect in action as supported by the architects, private equity firms and general contractors from each of these projects contacting us for supplemental information in preparation for their next projects," says Greg Guthrie, President, Guthrie Lumber and Distribution, Inc. "Currently, we are one month out on coating orders, and in the process of rolling out a second shift providing adequate production to meet the increase in demand. Our plans now are to introduce Eco Red Shield to the assisted living and student housing sectors of the industry; both of which would greatly benefit from the value-added protection Eco Red Shield provides," added Guthrie.
Also experiencing a similar increase in sales and production is ECOB Affiliate, Rocky Mountain BluWood of Denver, Colorado. With the effects of wildfire in the not too distant past, Eco Red Shield protected lumber represents a safe, cost-effective alternative to unprotected lumber."
