Installs Additional Dry Kilns
The Western Plywoods Company, Martinez, California, are making considerable improvements in connection with their Redwood plywood operation. The increased demand for high grade Ridwood panels has made it necessary for them to install additional veneer drying capacity, also woodworking machinery. Two Moore's Cross Circulation Veneer KilnJ are now being constructed' These driers are difierent from the usual type of veneer drier in that they employ relatively low temperatures.and fast air circulation for'drvine the veneer. The wide sheets of veneer will be stacked oi iacklift sleds and by employing special stacking system wide sheets of veneer can be dried uniformly without checking and sPlitting.
The marklets for-Redwood panels are being extended to many foreign countries where Redwood is used for interior trim.
