Modern Mill, the manufacturer of wood-alternative ACRE, announced a partnership with OrePac Building Products to expand the availability of its products in Oregon and Washington. OrePac will carry ACRE siding, porch floors, trim, and sheet products.
“We are excited to team up with Modern Mill to add ACRE products to our siding and trim portfolio,” said Kenny Gillett, VP of marketing and retail accounts at OrePac Building Products. “We’ve seen a growing need across the Pacific Northwest for sustainable alternatives to traditional materials. Innovative new products like ACRE offer builders and contractors an option that looks and acts like wood during install, but has the performance and convenience of a composite.”
ACRE is engineered from upcycled rice hulls and is virtually indistinguishable from wood, providing a practical solution for deforestation without sacrificing the aesthetics of natural wood or the conveniences of composites. Modern Mill’s circular manufacturing process ensures zero-waste and contributes to the preservation of rainforests and other natural resources.
“We’re excited to partner with OrePac Building Products,” said Kim Guimond, CMO at Modern Mill. “We’re committed to creating products that are sustainable, durable and beautiful, and partnerships with distributors like OrePac will help us achieve our goal of making ACRE the go-to wood alternative for builders and homeowners everywhere.”
