FOREST RIVER CHOOSES COR TEC’S ENCOR PRODUCT FOR TRAILER PRODUCTION
WASHINGTON COURT HOUSE, Ohio, March 21, 2001 – Cor Tec, a Crane Co. Company, has been chosen to provide its Encor® composite laminate panel for Forest River’s enclosed trailer division. “The Encor panel was chosen for use in approximately 5,000 Forest River trailer units for its quality and properties that improve efficiency during production,” said Mitchell Hollis, plant manager at Forest River.
“Cor Tec’s Encor product has good structural integrity that resists dent damage and delamination effects while saving production costs during trailer production,” said Hollis. “Encor replaces three materials and reduces hours of production time by eliminating the use of approximately 30 to 40 mechanical fasteners that were previously required,” said Hollis.
Terry Maurer, vice president of sales and marketing at Cor Tec, said that Encor products utilize an environmentally safe proprietary plastic foam combined with reinforced resins that give customers a surprisingly strong, yet lightweight, panel for a wide range of applications. Encor is laminated on both sides with resin-infused fiberglass fabric, to produce a durable, moisture-resistant composite.
Forest River provided trailers to a major home improvement center.
Cor Tec, headquartered in Washington Court House, Ohio, has 25 years experience in manufacturing fiberglass reinforced panels. Cor Tec’s panels are used in a wide range of applications, including pre-engineered building, sight and sound abatement, marine, and truck body and trailer manufacturing. More information about Cor Tec can by accessed by visiting www.cranecortec.com, or by calling 800-879-4377 (ext. 3205).
