Glulam Manufacturer To Celebrate
50 Years With Open House
Unadilla, NY (October 2, 2013)
On October 22, 2013, Unadilla Laminated Products, of Unadilla and Sidney,
NY, will celebrate 50 years of manufacturing glulam with an open house at their
Sidney, NY manufacturing facility. That day the company will also unveil their
updated brand at that facility.
“In 1963, my father and
grandfather expanded our plant to Sidney support our growing glulam business,”
reminisces Craig Van Cott, CEO. “Over the last 50 years, that business has grown
into our main product and on October 22 I am excited to say we will be
refreshing our brand to be more consistent with this product line. Longtime
customers can still count on the same high quality of our products and
services. And, our new brand will allow us to better communicate what we do to
prospective customers in the building industry.”
To launch the new brand and
celebrate 50 years of glulam, Unadilla Laminated Products will be giving plant
tours during an open house at their 100 West Road, Sidney, NY manufacturing
facility from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Tuesday, October 22, 2013. To register for
the open house, call Zoë van der Meulen, Vice President of Communication at
607-369-9341 or email [email protected]. Reservations will be taken
until Friday, October 18, 2013. 
About Unadilla Laminated
Products –
In 1892, the Van Cott family began selling lumber in Unadilla,
NY and in 1906 made the first Unadilla silo, beginning a product line that
would serve farmers until the 1980s. The company incorporated as the Unadilla
Silo Company, Inc. in 1909.
To further its commitment to
farmers, the Unadilla Silo Company experimented with glue laminated (glulam) barn
rafters in 1928. By 1963, this business had picked up steam and the Unadilla Laminated
Products division expanded into a new facility in nearby Sidney, NY where
glulam production continues today.
For more than a century, Unadilla
Laminated Products has built its reputation on a constant commitment to quality
and an eye on the future of building. Today’s leaders continue to embody the
spirit of tradition meeting innovation.
