Toronto, CANADA - (CFGL: Canadian Dealing Network) The CanFibre Group Ltd. is pleased to announce the receipt of its first load of urban, post consumer waste wood for use in its Riverside, CA Medium Density Fibreboard facility. The first 15 tons of waste wood were loaded into the raw material storage facility and will be used for commissioning of the wood preparation equipment. The urban waste wood will continue to be delivered to build inventory in advance of start-up of the facility which is anticipated in late Spring 1999 with commercial grade AllGreen being available for initial shipment by mid-summer. Commissioning and operator training has already commenced on North America's leading state-of-the-art panelboard plant. "Clean urban waste wood is a critical element of the facility and we are very pleased with the performance of our suppliers Apollo Wood Recovery and Sunset Fibre in ensuring that only the cleanest, highest quality wastewood fiber is delivered to the site," stated CanFibre President Chris Carl.
The Riverside AllGreen® facility uses patented steam press technology to produce high quality MDF using phenolic based resins instead of the normal urea formaldehyde resins used by most MDF manufacturers around the world. CanFibre's standard ALLGreen® MDF offers a combination of features never before available in a standard board. These include: no incremental formaldehyde emissions; additional moisture resistance for improved stability; and a "green" label giving value added producers a distinct market advantage for products based on AllGreen®. Additionally, ALLGreen® MDF can be specially ordered with a mix of the following premium features: Ultra Moisture Resistant, a new norm for the industry provides the ultimate in dimensional stability; Ultra Fire Resistant, a Class 1, UL rating coupled with standard AllGreen MDF features at a very affordable price; and Ultra Lite, solves critical weight problems without loss of strength or screw holding ability.
