On November 12, 2004, owners of Style Solutions™ Inc. purchased Fypon®, Ltd.

"Fypon has the same name recognition in our industry as Coca Cola does in the soft drink industry or Kleenex in the tissue market," says Dave Goulette, vice president and general manager for Style Solutions. "When it comes to product awareness, the Fypon name has a leading edge. Style Solutions is known for our superior customer service and operational excellence. The marriage of these two companies results in a single company that can fulfill all the interior and exterior moulding and millwork needs of building industry professionals, architects and consumers nationwide."

Effective February 22, 2005, the two companies will be combined into the new Fypon. New logo identification and marketing materials are being introduced for the company at the 2005 International Builders' Show in Orlando, January 13-16, 2005.

"We'll grow our company by building on the name strength of Fypon married with the innovative products, quality and exceptional service that Style Solutions has always exemplified," says Goulette. "As part of the acquisition process, we will evaluate the product offerings of both companies. From that review will come an expanded product mix suitable for a wide array of both residential and commercial projects."

Interior and exterior moulded millwork product categories offered by the new Fypon include polyurethane entrance and window trim, mouldings and decorative millwork, balustrade systems, columns and posts, louvers and eave vents. Fiberglass columns and PVC foamboard are also available.
