istory

In 1985, Nature's Blend was established to fill a void in the wood products industry. Some of the first products manufactured included decorative wooden brick appliques and flooring. In 1987, Nature's Blend expanded into its current location in the old PPG Glass plant in Ford City along the Allegheny River. In 1989, Nature's Blend began manufacturing cabinet doors and drawer fronts for the Manufactured and Modular home community. In that same year, the company had excedded $1.5 million in sales with just three regular customers.

Most of the door components were outsourced as Nature's Blend became more efficient at assembling and finishing these new products. In 1999, with annual sales over $7 million and servicing a larger customer base, the manufacturing environment became cramped and additional space was needed. Nature's Blend added an additional 40,000 square feet to the product floor. This gave Nature's Blend a facility with over 80,000 square feet of production space.

With this larger facility came new challenges. Nature's Blend had to redesign the production layout to reduce production time and lower costs. Nature's Blend is now prepared to accept the challenges of delivering high quality products to an ever changing marketplace.
