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 leader.
