RPM Wood Finishes Group Factory Fire in Hudson

They produce the Mohawk finshes line there. Glad the fire didn't get to the Nitrocelluose. This will impact their business. Looks like a big loss.

Sounds like no one was injured so it could definitely have been worse! Hope they will rebuild.

It was on the local news in eastern NC.

Behlen products may also be involved by this too as they are part of this group. It may pay to keep on top of the supply situation if you depend on a specific product. They have another production facility in New England so hopefully nothing will go completely offline.

The good news is all employees showed up for work this morning. The fire damage is restricted to their storage area and neighboring warehouse space. The video at the top right hand corner of this page is updated as of today at noon:
