Product doors and frames are available in all pantone colors and can be installed after drywalling and painting.
Bird Deterrent
The new Bird Jolt FlatTrack System, manufactured by Bird-B-Gone, is a flexible, lightweight electric track designed to deter birds from landing in unwanted areas. The product weighs 15 pounds per 100 foot roll, stands at 1/4 inch at its highest point, and comes if four different colors.
Made with UV-stabilized PVC, the FlatTrack keeps birds away from typical landing spots such as ledges, signs, I-beams and roof peaks.
Heat Pump
ClimateMaster announces a new console water-source heat pump with EarthPure (HFC-410A) Zero Ozone Depletion. The pump is ideal for facilities where a ductless system may be required, such as schools, hotels and office buildings. Occupants are able to adjust temperatures in individual zones by using the wall-mounted or unit-mounted thermostat.
A cabinet and chassis are the main components of the unit, and the two-piece design allows for the chassis to be installed in a customized cabinet.
Sustainable Fiberboard
SierraPine manufactures ARREIS Sustainable Design Fiberboard, a medium-density, formaldehyde-free product made from 100 percent recycled wood fiber.

The product is certified by SCS, EPP, ChiPs section 01350 and provides LEED credit support for materials and resources and indoor environmental quality.
Sweeper Attachment
Bobcat Company introduces the Bobcat 84-inch sweeper attachment, approved for use on Bobcat skid-steer loaders (models S220 through S300), compact truck loaders (models T250 through T300) and the A300 all-wheel steer loader.
The attachment features a floating bristle head that follows surface contours independently of the bucket for improved sweeping ability; larger diameter bristles on the sweeper that provide longer bristle life; and a solid mounted hood that limits damage to the sweeper. The direct-drive motor increases efficiency and reduces part replacement and maintenance.
