The plastic lumber plant at
the Environmental Learning
Center (ELC) scheduled for
completion in April, 1991 is al
ready receiving orders according
to ELC Director Jerry Herrmann.
Plastic lumber is a compound
made from compressed, recycled
plastic into synthetic lumber.
Plastic lumber can be used in the
place of actual wood and does not
rot like conventional lumber. Hie
cost of manufacture is also close
to that of wood products.
Herrmann has already re
ceived requests for 20 plastic
lumber picnic tables from Van-
denburg Air Force Base in Cali
fornia. “We’re not talking about
a plant; we’re talking about a whole
industry,” said Herrmann.
There have also been orders
from Tri-Met for bus stop shel
ters and information structures.
“The most interesting of all,”
according to Herrmann, “is an or
der for 3000 board feet to be used
in a bridge over the Rio Grande.”
Other agencies which have
expressed a desire for plastic
lumber have been the State High
way Department wanting sign posts
and the State Parks Department
to contain garbage material.
