Merger Between Weyerhaeuser And Plum Creek Transforms Lumber Industry
Tags:
(Posted on Apr 18, 2016 at 07:23PM by Lee Byard)
Within the timber market, few names inspire as much recognition (or respect) as the Weyerhaeuser Company. Since 1900 this international forester has propelled the market - delivering softwood lumber, pulp and paper products, and bleached krafting products. It’s served as an innovator - and dominator - within the milling field, and it’s helped to stabilize North America’s post-recession economy.Now that stability turns to invigoration, with the Weyerhaeuser Company sending waves throughout the market.
According to 'Reuters', Weyerhaeuser has just purchased Plum Creek (a Seattle lumber company founded in 1989). This merger delivers staggering rewards for both entities, generating $23 billion in overall acreage and product creations. This promises the largest forestry-related venture in the United States.
While the merge took many analysts by surprise, Rick Holley - Executive Officer of Plum Creek - offered a simple explanation for it. During an interview with 'Reuters', he remarked: "Both companies have historically looked to grow their timberland resource asset base (in others words to acquire more timberlands) so here's an opportunity for both of us to accomplish that.†Joining these two companies should redefine the lumber sector.
It should also create a need for specialty chains and conveyors - which Connexus Industries is ready to provide. We look toward the future, when Weyerhaeuser and Plum Creek will accelerate their operations and spark a timber surge.

In 2014 Connexus Industries arrived on the North American market - merging some of the world’s leading companies (including Lacey-Harmer, Viking Chains, and I’Anco) into a single entity. The purpose was to redefine the manufacturing field, reinvigorating production and delivering superior applications.We’re proud to say that this purpose has been achieved - and the proof is in our recent expansion.
Connexus Industries has just acquired a new Oregon locale. We’re moving to Wilsonville (part of the Portland metropolitan area)! There we’ll take advantage of a massive new building to host our extensive services - which include stainless steel specialty chains, laser production, metal detection, waste management solutions, and more.
The transition to a new location should prove seamless, with our team carefully planning both the site renovations and machine assemblages. This will ensure that our operations maintain their current output levels and our performance suffers no compromises.
We believe that Wilsonville will become an ideal addition to the Connexus Industries family - and we’re excited to begin a new chapter in our manufacturing story.

Manufacturing has regained its footing among the North American market - delivering steady profits and steadier productions. With this prosperity, however, comes an endless series of waste, with Canada and the United States generating tonnes of industrial debris.
Canada
According to Statistics Canada, approximately 29.9 billion tonnes of waste is created each year throughout the major municipalities.
The United States
According to eWaste Disposal, the United States creates approximately 34 million tonnes of hazardous waste each year.

The United States

The need for waste management strategies proves essential in North America - and Connexus Industries now provides those strategies, offering our clients The Orange Box.
The Orange Box is the market’s only true self-dumping hopper, allowing companies to quickly (and efficiently) respond to their waste issues. It delivers welded steel construction, a simple tilt construction, and seamless forklift integration. More importantly, however, it offers a capacity of 1 to 10 cubic yards.
This ensures that companies can easily accommodate several debris items, enabling more effective containment solutions. This is essential as industrial sites continue to expand their production schedules (and their waste creations).
The Orange Box is available in a variety of custom sizes. Our team will gladly assess each client’s management needs and then suggest options that cater to those needs.

The Sense-A-Cut System Delivers Real-Time Performance Feedback

Change is inevitable. Within the North American market, however, it’s also problematic - undermining operations, impacting performance, and interfering with sales solutions. Production variables are in a constant state of flux, with companies experiencing unpredictable issues (such as employee errors or machine malfunctions). This counters even the best strategies and impacts overall results.Accessing real-time information, therefore, proves critical - allowing businesses to quickly identify, assess, and respond to patterns as they happen (rather than waiting for next-day results). In an interview with Forbes, gyroVoice consultant Paul Dunay said: “Gathering the most data possible to inform a decision or solve a problem—in the window of time that best suits your need—is important.â€
Connexus Industries embraces this philosophy, fusing it with our Sense-A-Cut system.
The Sense-A-Cut system - which assists with bandsaw deviation monitoring - provides companies with immediate information. Its full-color graphic display showcases deflection rates, displaying both positive and negative thresholds and noting all error ratios. This allows for greater control, with problems immediately highlighted. Those overseeing the program can then adjust feed-speeds and cutting parameters as needed to ensure optimum productions.
Real-time progress measurement enhances every yield - and this translates to equally enhanced profits each quarter.
The Sense-A-Cut system promotes data efficiency. To learn more about this program contact us today.

Connexus Industries Emphasizes the Value Of Recessed Chain Profiles

Repetition propels North America’s economy - with operations performed constantly and consistently, an endless series of pushing, pulling, and hauling. Every industry (from logging to manufacturing, mining to harvesting) maintains a careful schedule of processes.It’s no surprise that these processes eventually take a toll on chains - with repetitive, persistent friction undermining the strength of every link. The materials weaken; the attachments break; and companies are then forced to endure lengthy (and costly) downtimes.
Connexus Industries wishes to change this, offering our clients custom chain profiles. We pair rugged stainless steel materials with precise casting, recessing both the heads and rivets of each product. This provides optimum protection from everyday operations, shielding the sides from damage.
It also allows us to fuse each chain with heavier cross sections. That enhances the strength of every link, increasing the surface area and promoting more efficient load distributions. Overall pressure is lessened to ensure long-lasting results - and this proves essential for North America’s leading fields.
