1994 - Weyerhaeuser finds success in UV factory finishing line, increasing production capacity by 300 percent.

Weyerhaeuser’s 1994 strategic plan included increasing production of factory-finished doors. The calculated increase brought forth many challenges including the threat of increased volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions and the need to reduce lead times in response to the demands of the market. Weyerhaeuser turned toward the solution of UV curable finishes, implementing a flat-line UV finishing system, called Enviroclad UV™. What had once taken Weyerhaeuser two working days to completely finish a door, now was completed in a mere 20 minutes, increasing production capacity by an estimated 300 percent.
