HomeNewsUnilin announces engineered hardwood price increase

Dallas – “Unilin remains focused on delivering the quality products and strong service that customers have come to expect from our brands,” said Shane Calloway, vice president of North American independent distribution sales for Unilin.  “Unfortunately, rising lumber, veneer, and transportation costs have outgrown our productivity initiatives,” said Calloway.  “As a result, Unilin is announcing a price increase, up to 6%, on engineered hardwood products in the Columbia and Century hardwood lines, effective January 1, 2013.”

(The price increase previously announced has now expanded from select engineered hardwood to all engineered hardwood products.)
