ALH:T"TiYTffif iHI: keting program is designed to capture an ever-increasing share of the building materials market for wood products and specifically those western wood species harvested, processed and sold by our member companies.

Naturally, promoting the advantages of using pressure treated wood, in cooperation with the Western Wood Preservers Institute, is an important part of our overall marketing strategy, since the specification of treated wood in areas exposed to the elements generaily leads to a greater use of wood throughout the project.

A perfect example of this is WWPA's total commitment to greater acceptance of the Permanent Wood Foundation throughout the design and construction markets. The Permanent Wood Foundation, originally introduced as the All-Weather Wood Foundation, is an engineered system which uses pressure treated plywood and lumber instead of concrete or masonry for foundation construction. This produces a cost+ffective, versatile foundation that is especially efficient in full basement applications.

The original All-Weather designation was chosen to stress the fact that. unlike concrete, wood materials can be "worked" in any type of weather, making the all-wood foundation the most effective specification for the builder. While this feature held specific appeal for the contractor, the name All-Weather did not carry the total benefits message to the home buyer. Builders said they were worried that customers may be hesitant to buy wood foundation homes, since the public did not perceive even treated wood as being a "permanent" product. Consequently, the industry adopted the Permanent Wood Foundation designation as being more representative and better stressing the benefits.

This all-wood foundation, which already has proven itself in extensive in-use testing and in more than 100,000 homes in the U.S., will be showcased in three separate promotions across the country in the coming months.

Under the auspices of the Wood Products Promotion Council, a joint industry effort with the American Plywood Association, the American Wood Council, the National Forest Products Association and the South-
