Additional Product Availability Enables Distributor to Offer Faster
Service
NASHVILLE, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
MBM Forest Products has announced that it now stocks LP®
SolidStart® LSL Rim Board out of its Denny, Stirlingshire,
location in Scotland. The added product availability will allow MBM to
service customers in Scotland and other key areas, with a 24-hour
delivery.
"MBM Forest Products is dedicated to providing our customers with the
best products and a fast, efficient delivery service," said Andrew
Caldwell, product manager. "For the past two years, we've stocked
SolidStart Rim Board solely in Tilbury. We're seeing increasing demand
for the product in Scotland. The added product availability will allow
us to provide better service for customers throughout Scotland and
Northern England."
LP SolidStart Rim Board is ideal for supporting vertical and lateral
loads as a part of the overall framing system, providing consistency,
strength and dimensional stability. LP SolidStart products are created
primarily from smaller, fast-growing trees. They are Chain of Custody
certified by both PEFC and SFI.
"One of the biggest benefits of the LSL rim board is the cost
competitiveness," Caldwell said. "The 29 mm LSL Rim Board uses 10 to 35
percent less m3 than traditional 32 mm or 45 mm alternatives, offering
savings to timber frame manufacturers. Plus the lighter weight helps
with faster installation."
MBM Forest Products also offers LP SolidStart I-Joists and LSL out of
its Hull location as well as LP SolidStart I-Joists, LSL, LVL and Rim
Board out of its Tilbury location as a part of its growing range of
engineered timber products. All products will be on display at Ecobuild
in London from March 5 to 7 in LP Building Products booth s910.
