PLIB Partners With TP&EE
Hatton-Brown Expositions and Pacific Lumber Inspection Bureau announce that PLIB will participate in the Preferred Partner program with Hatton-Brown’s Timber Processing & Energy Expo (TP&EE), which will be held September 28-30 at the Portland Exposition Center in Portland, Ore.
The Preferred Partner program is geared toward event promotions, and includes a PLIB exhibit at TP&EE.
TP&EE is hosted by Timber Processing magazine, which is published by Hatton-Brown Publishers, Inc., the parent of Hatton-Brown Expositions.
TP&EE, which caters to primary sawmill producers and engineered wood products producers, is nearly sold out of exhibitor space with 170 equipment and technology companies signed on.
Pacific Lumber Inspection Bureau is a private, non-profit member-based quality control inspection agency. PLIB is headquartered in Federal Way, Wash., with a Canadian division office in Vancouver, BC. In 2019 PLIB merged operations with West Coast Lumber Inspection Bureau (WCLIB) and WCLIB’s partner organization, the American Institute of Timber Construction (AITC).
