Atlantic Plywood Announces Expansion into Midwest Markets

Effective immediately, Atlantic Plywood, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parksite, is expanding their business model into the Midwest with a select product mix, that includes Columbia Forest Products™, ATI Decorative Laminates, Rehau, Knape & Vogt, Century Components, and Mirka Abrasives.  Parksite’s 125,000 sq. ft. Bolingbrook, Illinois distribution facility currently services the Surfaces and LBM product lines including, Corian® Quartz, Corian® Solid Surfaces, DuPont Tyvek®, Deckorators®, Crown Column and Versatex® Trimboards. With the expansion of Atlantic into the Bolingbrook facility, sales associates will cross sell our products to our existing customer base and develop relationships with new customers, as we continue to add products to our offering.

 

“We consider this new location a monumental step in our growth,” said Marty Wojick, Vice President of Sales, Atlantic Plywood.  “Our commitment to providing the highest quality products, combined with our mission to deliver outstanding service, has earned our company the excellent reputation it holds today in the Northeast. We are confident we can expand the business model we have created over the last 45 years to a new customer base in the Midwest.”

 

Parksite acquired Atlantic Plywood Corporation, a leading distributor of industrial wood products and accessories in the Northeastern United States in January 2018.  “The purpose of the acquisition of Atlantic Plywood was to combine the resources of two great companies and expand into areas we couldn’t separately.  Creating one company to deliver product solutions from industrial wood products, to premium surfacing materials to specialty building products will provide customers an unmatched resource in our markets,” stated Ron Heitzman, CEO of Parksite Inc.  “This is the first of our planned expansions throughout our territories.”
