Fiberlay has been extremely effective in keeping Bayview Edison Industries supplied with necessary and useful lamination and production accessories and supplies. Keeping four separate Fiberlay supply cabinets stocked with the supplies we need, has kept our production goals at the best we could expect. The crew that I work with at Fiberlay is receptive, quick to act, and knowledgeable on tooling supplies and accessories Bayview Edison Industries uses and needs in daily operations.

Thank You Fiberlay
Bob Wood, Purchasing Agent

We have used Fiberlay as our primary composite supplier since our founding. Their innovative approach to keeping us productive has been a key to our success. Fiberlay stocks materials on a consignment basis in our shop thus helping to eliminate the gaps from “just in time” supply. The sales reps have spent time in our shop weekly and know our needs and abilities. We have always found Fiberlay’s top management to be available and responsive to our needs.
We look forward to a productive relationship for many more years.

Sincerely,
Martin Bridenstine
President

Fiberlay has been selling us resins, gelcoats, coring, and sand paper since 2000.  The prices are comparable, but their service scores a 10!  They have gone out of their way to get products to us in a time of need.  It is easy to order from them and I know that I am talking to someone local rather than out of state.  They are family owned and being involved in a family owned business myself I enjoy doing business with them.

We have had a relationship with Fiberlay for 10 years or more, started when they were located in Ballard. Scott and his team have always been extremely helpful and they come to us with new products and or tools which help us stay ahead of the curve. When we are looking for specialty items or new technology, we always give Fiberlay a call.

I have worked for Safeway Inc for 20 years concurrent with my new found love of the aerospace industry.  Safeway is the only grocery chain that prides its business with World Class Service.  Fiberlay is a company that exemplifies this level of service.  Tony Ramirez cares about the operations of my company, Precision Pattern by providing a reliable supply of required products.  The tool makers in my shop are satisfied with the quality, durability and flexibility of the products offered, and we will continue to purchase many of our items through Fiberlay for years to come.

Fiberlay has played a key role in supplying Miles Fiberglass and Composites with operating supplies that are essential to our production. With the consignment inventory cabinet I have found that we have better control over that inventory and I was able to cut my time spent overseeing this inventory by half. The sales Rep. and staff from Fiberlay has away been very helpful and quit to respond to our needs. I would be very wiling to recommend Fiberlay to any one looking to better there operations.

Fiberlay 2010 Composite Material Expo & Customer Appreciation

The show was a big success. The concept of having people visit each and every booth, getting their Registration Card checked-off by vendors was a very novel way of insuring participation in the show in order to be registered for a door prize. This really kept things moving and busy all day long.

Scott was also nice enough to invite my wife Teresa and me along for a tour of the Bainbridge area with his group on Saturday..very thoughtful and we enjoyed the day trip.

Thanks again and have a good week.

Best regards,

Back at the office today!

Excellent event! Thank you for putting on such an educational and fun Expo and look forward to the next one! More of the the same, business and technical and more about polymers and related tech (casing, tech, new). But it’s hard to improve an A+++ event like this one. Thanks for putting it on.

Enjoyed the event and feel it was worth while to attend. Wish I had a little more time to speak with some of the vendors, but will follow up with Jay Newton. I am always interested in new materials and technical training for environmental reasons, ease of production or processing. For future event training and classes I would like to see more on infusion process and maybe some urethane processing. I enjoyed meeting your staff. Thanks for organizing a great event. I enjoyed talking with Winnie! Dave Sodergren
