Inteplast Group has entered into a purchase agreement to acquire composite decking manufacturer #Fiberon (Fiberon Holding Company LLC and its subsidiaries) from a subsidiary of Fortune Brands Innovations. The agreement includes Inteplast’s acquisition of Fiberon’s manufacturing sites in New London, North Carolina, where its headquarters are located; and one site in Meridian, Idaho. The closing is anticipated to be within 60 days, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

Fiberon will be part of the World-Pak division and its #Inteplast Building Products business unit, which is a major supplier of #PVC and #polystyrene trim, decking, moulding, and garage weatherstrip, among others. The onboarding of Fiberon, with its focus on composite boards using primarily recycled materials, will greatly increase the breadth of Inteplast’s portfolio of building products.


John Stevens, president of World-Pak, said, “The anticipated #acquisition of Fiberon provides expansion within the decking category with non-wood, capped composites, and other product extension opportunities in the outdoor living space within our current #InteplastBuildingProducts segment. Upon closing, we look forward to a successful integration as we welcome our newest colleagues. Collectively, we will provide optimal service to the market and customers.


Both companies will continue to operate independently until the closing date, upon which an acquisition-related closing announcement will be made public.

Fiberon was founded in 1997 and has served the decking industry for more than 25 years. Decking lines include ArmorGuard, Good Life, Sanctuary, Concordia, Paramount, Promenade, and its newest, Novus. Fiberon is a 2025 recipient of the Green GOOD DESIGN Award, Beam of Excellence Award, and the NADRA National + Deck Award.


Inteplast started its building products operations in 1993 and currently sells building products throughout North America. It has four strategically located plants, with its flagship plant in Lolita, TX.

Today's KNOWLEDGE Share : Robotic 3D printing can compete with traditional boatbuilding

Image
Today's KNOWLEDGE Share “Robotic 3D printing can compete with traditional boatbuilding”, Simone Barbera and Mattia De Santis, Caracol V2 catamaran was printed in Italy at Caracol’s production center and headquarter in Barlassina, near Milan, with a Heron AM 400, Caracol’s robotic Large Format Additive Manufacturing (LFAM) platform. The lattest was specifically configured with a 7-axis robotic arm mounted on a rail, enabling the printing of parts up to 10 meters in length. How did the collaboration between V2 Group and Caracol come about? Simone Barbera : The collaboration between V2 Group and Caracol originated from a shared vision to revolutionize boat manufacturing through sustainable innovation. V2 Group, a Spanish-company specialized in nautical design and engineering, is seeking to develop electric vessels manufactured sustainably. On the other hand, Caracol, leader in robotic advanced manufacturing technology, had had years of experience working with Large Format Additive Ma...

Today's KNOWLEDGE Share : A BUG IN INJECTION MOLDING

Image
Today's KNOWLEDGE Share A bug in injection molding – an injection-molded part in a bug? Neither! Nature and injection molding have reached similar results. Nature created the first micro-gear long before any human engineering existed. One such example is the Issus coleoptratus (shown in the picture). Furthermore, only now are we reaching the point where injection-molded polymer microgears can approach this level of performance. Looking at the images, which one do you think is the natural gear, and which one is the molded version? It is not that easy to tell, right? Their appearance and operating principles are surprisingly similar. Chitin, a natural linear polymer, forms what nature essentially "molds” into shape. In engineering, we rely on advanced technical polymers to produce similar geometry through actual injection molding. They are not the same material, yet they solve the same issue: Stiffness, dimensional stability, and reliable function at a scale where tolerances...

Anti-Oxidant masterbatches protect the polymer chain, stabilizing it against thermal and oxidative stress. They are essential in polyolefins, engineering plastics, and films that undergo long processing cycles, ensuring durability, color stability, and consistent performance. source : Polimerizze Technology
