EXTON, PA, September 7, 2004 /- Principia Partners, globally recognized for unrivaled wood-plastic composites (WPC) industry knowledge, will be hosting WPC Conference 2004, Realizing the Full Potential on October 11 and 12, 2004 at the Sheraton Inner Harbor in Baltimore, MD. This event draws on some of the most knowledgeable commercial and technical experts to share their perspectives and developments on a variety of business issues facing this industry.

Jim Morton, Senior Partner, says, "We are extremely pleased about the breadth and depth that this event will provide all attendees. In addition to an exciting lineup of experts presenting their views about this fast-growing building products segment, Principia will moderate two panel discussions over the two-day event."

The first panel discussion will comprise wood-plastic composite producers from Europe sharing their views about how market dynamics differ between North America and Europe. These panelists, including AFT Plasturgie, Knotwood, Silvadec, and SPPS/PROTOM, will address the exciting opportunities that can be translated back and forth from one region of the world to another.

A second panel discussion will comprise senior executives from the leading building products distributors serving the category. Panelists from Wolf Distributing Company, Snavely Forest Products, Boise Building Solutions, and Parksite Plunkett-Webster will give the audience a first-hand opportunity to hear how they are handling the challenges of selling WPCs to the lumberyard market and on through to the professional builder community.

In addition, nearly two dozen companies including raw materials, equipment, and processing leaders will exhibit their latest product and service offerings aimed at the wood-plastic composites industry.
