Simpson Timber Compony Announces $2t Million Exponsion
Simpson Timber Company has outlined plans for a $21 million plant expansion and improvement program in its Washington, Oregon and California forest products operations.
C. H. Bacono Jr., President, announced $lO million is being spent on new construction and modernization this year and that another $II million will be invested in Simpson's lumber, plywood, chemical and wood fiber production in 1964-66.
"Our investments in modernizing forest properties on the West Coast reflect confidence in the future of wood products and in our ability to compete for domestic and international markets," Bacon said. "Our plants are supplied with raw materials from 600,000 acres under modern forest management and supported by research scientists and engineers at our research laboratory in Bellevue."
The privately-owned Simpsbn Company was founded by Sol G. Simpson in Mason County, Washington, in 1890. It operates 2l plants employing 5,000 people in 12 communities in three states.
Bacon said the Comnany's emphasis on modernized production will result in the closing of its Portland Plylock plywood plant on August 31. This oldest plant in the softwood plywood industry was built in 1905 and has been operated by Simpson since its 1956 acquisition of the M and M Wood Working Company.
Bacon explained the outrnoded Portland plywood operation no longer meets the economic requirements of the highly-competitive plywood trade.
Most of the S10,000,000 being invested this year is for complete dry lumber manufacturing plant facilities, and complete new veneer processing facilities at Shelton, Washington, and expanded plywood production capacity at Klamath and Eureka, California.
Lumber and veneer plants under construction in Shelton will form one of the largest all-wood manufacturing concentrations in the United States. One plant covers 512 acres and extends one quarter mile. Simpson created 15 acres of waterfront fill to provide space for its new plants and warehouses. Every building features plywood, sawed timbers and laminated beams.
Also on the Company's 1964 construction schedule are plywood processing improvements at Albany, Lyons and Idanha, Oregon, and at Eureka and Klamath" California. Chemical division expansion is planned at Portland and the Company is researching new products and processes for several plants.
