About The Plastics Blog
As editor of Plastics News, I scan scores of Web sites, emails and news releases daily, and stay in constant touch with our network of global staff reporters and correspondents -- the largest reporting team in the plastics industry. I distill the more interesting items into commentary for this blog. Plastics News, part of Crain Communications Inc., began publishing weekly news in 1989, and launched a bilingual China site in mid-2005. In 2007, Crain acquired the two leading English-language plastics publications in Europe - Plastics & Rubber Weekly and the monthly European Plastics News.

Building products and 'Extreme Makeover'

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

I received a note this week from a vinyl window fabricator that donated product for a deserving family featured on ABC's "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition."

The company, National Vinyl LLC of Chicopee, Mass., said its vendors -- Chelsea Building Products, Edgetech, AGC Glass, Guardian, Timber Trading and OSI Sealants -- also donated material for the project, a home in Springfield, Mass.

Chelsea Building Products supplied all the vinyl profiles.

"We are extremely proud to be involved in this project," said National Vinyl General Manager Scott Channell. "The ability to assist a deserving member of our community is an honor and our employees as well as our vendors are excited to be contributing to this great cause."

My wife is a fan of "Extreme Makeover," and we always notice the not-so-subtle product placements shots. We're not bothered by them, though -- half the fun of watching the show is seeing which companies supply the cool building products and appliances.

Congratulations to National Vinyl and Chelsea, we'll be watching for you in a future episode.
