A splendid example of what can be accomplished by the use of Douglas Fir plywood is shown in the new office building of Associated Plywood Mills in Olympia, Wash.
The handsome structure is of plywood construction throughout, including both exterior and interior wall surfaces.
Associated Plywood Mills is the name of the consolidated sales department of three large plywood manufacturing plants: Olympia Veneer Company, Olympia, Wash.; Pacific Plywood Corporation, Willamina, Ore., and Eugene Plywood Company, Eugene, Ore. The three plants are owned by the same stockholders, the Olympia Veneer Company being the parent concern.
Officers of Associated Plywood Mills are Morris Sekstrom, president; T. F. Eckstrom, vice-president, and Hollis J. Nunneley, sales manager.
The aggregate annual production of the three mills is about 240,000,000 feet of plywood.
Olympia Veneer Company was organized in 1920 and was the first exclusive manufacturer of commercial Douglas Fir plywood. The Willamina plant was built two years ago. The Eugene plant was completed in 194O, and is equipped entirely with hotplate presses.
