Major Capital Investments Expand Production of Erosion Control Products
BUFFALO GROVE, Ill. (November 12, 2007) - Profile Products LLC is expanding the capacity of its Conover, NC, facilities, home of the company's most advanced erosion control technologies, in conjunction with a recent expansion of its Sanger, CA, plant.  Major capital investments and enhanced manufacturing efficiencies at Conover, along with the improvements in Sanger, will soon result in a dramatic increase in the company's production capacity to ensure there is a reliable supply of erosion control products across the country.
 "Our new, overall capacity will greatly enhance Profile's ability to meet the needs of North American and international markets in a very timely fashion," said John Schoch, CEO of Profile.  "The improvements now in place at Sanger and those nearing completion at our Conover facilities are rooted in our constant desire to provide new erosion control technologies and even better service to our customers."
 In addition to increasing its production capacity, Profile also constructed a new, 150,000-square-foot distribution center to support the Conover manufacturing plant.  The Hickory Distribution Center was completed in July and went on line in August of this year.
