RoyOMartin Adds Production Line In Corrigan
RoyOMartin has announced a new production line for its Eclipse-branded OSB radiant barrier product at the Corrigan, Tex. facility. The Globe Machine Manufacturing Co. line, which will be completed over the next few months, is also equipped with a Black Brothers laminating station. This new line will double the output of the product when running at full capacity.
“Eclipse has been an important value-added product for RoyOMartin since it was first introduced in 2003 at our Lemoyen mill. We have grown our capabilities over the past 18 years with efficiency improvements on the original machine, but in 2019 we realized the market was outgrowing our ability to produce enough radiant barrier. Our new Corrigan OSB LLC facility was the perfect location to add production capacity,” says Terry Secrest, Executive Vice President, RoyOMartin.
