SCS Forest Products, Inc. acquires the assets of Northern Milltech Inc. 

November 10, 2007

SCS Forest Products, Inc., Denver, CO (SCS FP) announced today that it has acquired 
the assets of Northern Milltech (NMI), Fort St. James, BC,  the leading provider of 
moisture measurement systems for the sawmill and planer mill market. Improved moisture
control has emerged as a critical process element in the forest products industry as mills
increasingly focus on profitability and yield.  Adding NMI's widely adopted sawmill and 
planer mill moisture measurement systems to SCS FP's in-kiln moisture measurement 
product line, offers customers a tightly integrated, end-to-end moisture measurement 
solution. The opportunity for significant yield improvement at the planer mill is 
substantial.  NMI and SCS estimate that better moisture control can result in a 4% or 
greater improvement in moisture grade.  Seamless integration of the various moisture 
measurement systems is imperative in order to achieve optimum results.

"With the acquisition of NMI, SCS Forest Products positions itself as the premier 
provider of fully integrated moisture measurement solutions for the lumber industry," 
said Patrick Youssi, President, SCS Forest Products.  "SCS Forest Products is committed 
to continue the development and acquisition of best of breed complimentary products".

"We are very pleased and excited to join SCS Forest Products in its drive to deliver 
customer value," says Tyler Graham, President, NMI.  "The combined company will be 
extremely well positioned to provide advanced moisture tracking and control solutions for 
lumber mills world-wide."

The two companies have a total of 200+ installations world-wide and are experiencing 
substantial growth in both revenue and customer base.  Continued expansion will be 
accomplished via internal product development and future acquisitions.

SCS Forest Products provides the industry’s only complete line of integrated moisture 
measurement systems and related process optimization tools for the sawmill, kiln and 
planer mill.  The company has over 200 installations world-wide – making it the industry
