NWPCA 2015 Fall Plant Tours

This Saturday, September 5, is the last day to take advantage of regular registration rates for the NWPCA/AHMI 2015 Fall Plant Tours—that is, if it hasn’t already sold out!

The tours of hardwood and softwood sawmills along with new and recycle pallet manufacturing facilities begin Wednesday, October 21, in Charlotte, North Carolina.  First up is PalletOne, a new pallet manufacturer utilizing lean manufacturing principles, and Pallet Resource of NC, a full-service provider for all wooden material handling needs.  They continue the following day, Thursday, October 22, at Edwards Wood Products, a manufacturer of pallets and high grade and industrial grade hardwood lumber, and Jordan Lumber & Supply, a
privately owned lumber company.

In addition to the tours, there will be networking receptions occurring on Tuesday and Wednesday evening.  With four tours, two receptions, and group meals, this event is a great opportunity to reconnect with or meet new industry colleagues from around the country, all while exploring and learning about manufacturing operational excellence.

We hope to see you there!  For registration and hotel accommodation information, click Fall Plant Tours.  For additional things to do while you’re in Charlotte, a.k.a. “Queen City,” visit https://www.charlottesgotalot.com/.  And, please stay tuned to our blog for the latest industry networking events and educational opportunities.
