The Last Show…

Wednesday, November 13th, 2019

We just returned from Tucson, Arizona where we attended the EWTA Info Fair, the premier supplier exhibition for companies to connect with North America’s leading engineered product manufacturers. It was a great event where we reconnected with old colleagues and made new connections. This show is the last one that Brunette is attending in 2019 and we are busy planning for all the exciting trade events that are coming up in the New Year.

 

 

The first two shows are happening in February and both offer excellent opportunities for networking with colleagues and customers in the forestry, wood products and bioenergy industries.

The Indiana Hardwood Lumbermen’s Association Convention and Exposition (IHLA) is billed as the largest convention and trade shows of its kind in the Midwest. The Association’s 122nd annual event, showcasing new technologies and innovations in the hardwood market, will take place over three days — February 3-5, 2020 in Indianapolis, Indiana. Find out more here.

Running at the same time, is the 13th Annual International Biomass Conference and Expo in Nashville, Tennessee — the world’s premier educational and networking event for the biomass industry. Sponsored by BBI International, this show will feature “All Things Biomass” with an expected attendance of over 900 producers, partners and industry experts. Read more here.

Both events promise to be exciting and informative with the opportunity to meet with peers, receive timely information on important industry topics, catch up with old customers and develop new connections. They will bring exhibitors, industry professionals and attendees together to share with and learn from each other.

If you are attending either event, please stop by our booths and say hello!

WPAC Conference & AGM — We Were There

Friday, September 21st, 2018

We attended the Wood Pellet Association of Canada’s (WPAC) 2018 Conference and AGM this week along with wood pellet, biomass and bioenergy professionals from across North America, Europe and Asia. It was a great opportunity to learn about the emerging bioenergy industry and the impact it is having around the globe.

The speakers were from various sectors of the industry including Christian Hansen, the Regional Director and Senior Trade Commissioner of Global Affairs Canada, Pacific regional office in Vancouver, Fiona Murray, Vice President of industrial products at CN Rail, as well as other leaders in the wood pellet and biomass/bioenergy industries in Canada and the US.

The conference focussed on international developments in the domestic and global wood pellet industry such as new research and development in the science of biomass, the emerging and fast-growing pellet market in Asia and the most innovative pellet and bioenergy technologies that are being produced right now.

It was an interesting and well-organized event, with great speakers, a beautiful venue and ample opportunities for learning and networking with professionals from all areas of this exciting market.

We even had the good fortune to sample, John Swaan’s world famous pellet-smoked ribs at Tuesday evening’s barbeque and networking event. John is the pellet expert at Future Metrics and he is considered to be the “grandfather of wood pellets”.

Brunette Presents at OptiSaw 2018

Tuesday, May 8th, 2018

Capital is an exciting word in the forestry industry. In the lumber mill business, considering capital expenditure means answering the question: Do you repair or replace, a major piece of equipment?

Brunette Machinery’s Patrick Browne will present a case study on this issue at OptiSaw — the one-day educational forum aimed at those involved in the sawmill business — happening on June 5, 2018 in Richmond, BC.

Patrick’s study focuses on the log singulator, an innovative machine that notably changed the forest industry in the 1980’s. He explores the pros and cons of investing in the most recent technology or repairing/maintaining existing time-tested units.

OptiSaw, presented by Canadian Forest Industries’ Wood Business, will feature Brunette’s case study along with other topics concerning the future of sawmilling.

Join us at this informative event on June 5th, 2018 at the Sheraton Vancouver Airport Hotel, in Richmond, BC. This forum is geared to people associated with the sawmill industry —sawmill management and owners, process engineers, continual improvement managers, optimization staff, researchers and design consultants.
