The company will use the sawmill residuals from the Biewer Lumber facility to produce its patented-design composite wood pallet blocks, which will serve the food service and other industries. The venture will establish the first pallet block facility for ArbaBlox with the company planning to establish additional facilities in the future.
“ArbaBlox is proud to announce its first composite pallet block manufacturing facility, to be located in Winona, Mississippi. We greatly appreciate all of the support from the community and MDA in helping make this exciting project a reality. We look forward to being a strong partner in the local community, Ed Milburn, ArbaBlox CEO announced.
The Mississippi Development Authority (MDA) is providing assistance for building improvements. The city of Winona and Montgomery County also are assisting with the project.
“Agriculture, forestry and wood products are top economic drivers for Mississippi, and companies are increasingly investing in our state and creating good jobs to capitalize upon the abundance of natural resources we offer. MDA is glad to support ArbaBlox as it opens its first pallet blocks manufacturing facility in our great state,” MDA Deputy Executive Director Laura Hipp added.
The venture will establish the first pallet block facility for ArbaBlox with the company planning to establish additional facilities in the future.
“On behalf of Montgomery County’s Economic District and Economic Development, we are excited to welcome ArbaBlox to our community and to the State of Mississippi.
