(PRWEB) February 23, 2006 -- If all the 2 million new homes that are built in the U.S. each year were built using Profile Lumber, at least 10 million tons of chips would be generated. Ten million tons of chips can go a long way toward producing a significant amount of Ethanol. Ethanol is part of the solution to our addiction to oil.
Profile Lumber licenses a new way to mill lumber that not only strengthens buildings, but saves significant shipping weight and reduces the number of trees needed to build a home or other wood-based structure.
The milling method is a relatively simple conversion that can be used in large as well as small lumber mills, increasing the mills profits.
As a reliable source of bio-mass, converting to Profile Lumber could easily create the anchor needed to make wide-spread Ethanol a reality, contributing to President Bush's call for more ethanol development.
The benefits don't stop with Ethanol. Profile Lumber also makes all real progress on sustainable building, and reduces the impact on landfills because it stops the fiber waste in conventional lumber milling.
Another way to picture the benefit is to realize that the fiber created by every home built with Profile Lumber would generate a stack of typing paper 250 feet high - about the height of a five story building.
Profile Lumber was developed by Christopher Scott, a resident of San Diego, CA. Additional information can be found at
