Shawn Eshragh, President of Concept Industries, states that he is pleased that this technology is being developed in West Michigan, and believes that this will enhance the status of Grand Rapids as a center of innovation and development.

He looks forward to working with state and federal agencies to promote industrial and agricultural areas of growth for the region. Concept Industries' core ideologies are to create unique new products and processes with technology and ingenuity, and inspire social change and respect for all people.

According to Mr. Eshragh, "Our goal is the betterment of mankind and to make an impact on our economy, on our environment, and on the future of our children." Concept Industries is very pleased to partner with HON Company as it launches its newest environmental initiative, Nature Core fiber board.

HON Company and Concept Industries share similar corporate beliefs and ideologies. Both are committed to product innovation, outstanding customer service, and solutions for its customers with a conscience for protecting the environment.

Concept Industries began in 1984 as a manufacturer of packaging products and rapidly expanded to include automotive parts and molded plastic components for furniture, automotive and packaging applications, and added a new line of non-woven textiles ten years ago by purchasing the fiber division of Johnson Controls Inc.

This was initially used for acoustic automotive components, still used in the Chevrolet Impala, the Hummer H2, and Saturn Vue crossover SUV, and the recently redesigned Chrysler Sebring has an interior dash insulator which is a composite of lightweight non-woven recyclable materials. Concept Industries invented a similar product that was first marketed in the very popular Ford F150 pickup truck.

Research has now been successful in applying this knowledge to natural fibers to replace fiberglass. Products to hit the general market soon include acoustic and heat insulating panels for the building and construction industries, designable ceiling tiles, and other construction applications.

New areas include other building materials, further acoustic and structural applications, automotive applications, etc. Concept Industries looks forward to bringing these new innovative products to market.
