In conjunction with its International Builders Show (IBS) debut, LifeTime Lumber® is pleased to announce expanded sales distribution with BlueLinx Corporation (“BlueLinx”), a leading nationwide building products distributor. Expanding the reach of LifeTime Lumber to the Central Plains States, the new agreement offers high performance wood alternative lumber to BlueLinx® customers in Iowa, Missouri and Oklahoma.
“The decking product is impressive and superior to just about anything I’ve seen,” said David Ash, General Manager for BlueLinx’ Central Plains States. “Our customers certainly have a need for a product that carries this level of performance. The fact that it meets the strict and stringent fire codes in California puts our customers ahead of the curve on upcoming regulations.”
Already offered by BlueLinx throughout Arizona, California and Nevada, versatile LifeTime Lumber holds much to offer the Central Plains States. LifeTime Lumber is a win-win for builders and homeowners looking for an easy-to-use wood alternative that is green, fire resistant and affordable. LifeTime Lumber weighs in at 25 percent lighter than other lumber composite products, and its Class-B product is naturally fire resistant, with Class-A products available.
“The LifeTime Lumber fencing profiles for farms and ranches are very exciting as well,” added Ash. “This is an exceptional market segment poised for growth, so we look forward to capturing market share with LifeTime Lumber fencing.”
“The benefit of resistance to rot and pests is also a very big deal in this market and LifeTime Lumber can take all the extremes that the Central Plains climate has to offer,” said Nisha Vyas, vice president of LifeTime Lumber. “BlueLinx Corporation has been wonderful to work with thus far, and the care and support they have shown in debuting our products to West Coast markets has been impressive. We’re happy with our continued business expansion and supplying them leading edge products for their customers.”
