Kevin Shotbolt, vice president of sales and marketing, announces Wade Gregory has joined Flakeboard's sales team. Gregory will serve as the sales manager for the Flakeboard's western region and assume responsibilities for new product development and customer service for Eugene MDF and Duraflake Particleboard manufacturing sites. 

Coming to Flakeboard from Hambro Forest Products, where he held the position of Industrial Sales Manager, Gregory has an extensive background in the panel industry. He has a chemical engineering background (B.S. Chemistry from Oregon State University) and has held sales and marketing roles for companies such as Louisiana Pacific, Down River, Medite Corporation and SierraPine, where he was also President and COO from 2005 to 2008.

In 2000, Wade was the Chairman of the Composite Panel Association, joining other notable Flakeboard employees such as Kelly Shotbolt, TJ Rosengarth and Dave Leding to hold that foremost position.

Flakeboard says Wade will bring immeasurable experience to both Eugene MDF and Duraflake Particleboard and will play an important role in strategic growth plans for a North American-wide business in the future.
