Cooper Machine Partners With EWD
Cooper Machine Co., a long-established manufacturer of quality sawmill equipment located in Wadley, Ga., announced that it is partnering with German-based sawmill machine manufacturer EWD Sagetechnik.
Cooper Machine has been offering equipment for sawmill, pallet, and post and pole mills since 1965. The company is in its third generation of successful management.
EWD dates back to 1862 and today employs 250 in Germany. The partnership with EWD allows Cooper Machine to offer an expanded range of sawmill equipment.
“In the future, with labor getting more expensive and harder to find, we want to offer our customers fully automated sawmills. With the same shared beliefs, we believe we have found the ideal partner in EWD Sagetechnik,” explains Frances Cooper, CEO of Cooper Machine.
Working with EWD will offer many advantages for Cooper Machine customers since it will be able to offer a wide array of well-designed, German engineered sawmill equipment, along with service and parts located in the U.S. Cooper Machine has committed to providing customer service on all EWD equipment it sells and will stock the parts needed to back the service.
