HUNTING AT OUR LIBERTY DRIVE PROPERTY

With archery season almost upon us, we remind interested parties that hunting -- or traversing through our property -- is not allowed at our premises located at 2107 Liberty Drive in Wheatfield (Niagara Falls mail-drop) at any time of the year. There are too many liability issues associated with allowing hunters and other outdoor enthusiasts on the property. All trespassers will be asked to leave. Failure to leave (as well as repeat offenses) will lead us to contact the Niagara County Sheriff's Department and/or the NY Department of Environmental Conservation. 

1990 CUSTOM MANUFACTURING BROCHURE

In our ongoing celebration of our 40 years of business, here's a copy of our custom manufacturing brochure from 1990.

INTERNATIONAL POOL/SPA/PATIO EXPO

With all of the kids back to school, summer is unofficially over. That has us thinking about next summer and preparing all of our dealers and distributors for it.

One of the biggest events for this -- the International Pool/Spa/Patio Expo -- is just over 2 months away, November 12th - 14th at Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Confer Plastics will be displaying our wares at booth 5036. Stop by and visit with Dennis, Bruce, and Charla and check out our line of products --- from the old stand-byes like the 7200 ladder to the Curve step system that took the market by storm this year.

You will also get to check out our new products, which will include an adapter kit that will allow our ladders to be used on the increasingly-popular Intex and EZ-Set pools.

LABOR DAY HOURS

Confer Plastics will be closed Saturday, August 31st through Monday, September 2nd in observance of Labor Day and in celebration of everyone who works at CPI. Enjoy Summer's last hurrah!

POWER RESTORED

Power has been restored to the plant as of 6:50 PM, so there WILL be a third shift tonight (Monday, August 26th).

POWER OUTAGE AT THE PLANT

There has been a significant power outage in the area because of thunderstorms. It is affecting 1,600 businesses and residences in North Tonawanda and another 1,100 in Wheatfield...Confer Plastics is one of them. Because of that, 2nd shift has been sent home for Monday, August 26th. Power is set to be restored to the grid at 5:00 PM (per National Grid) and then we have to energize the plant and tend to the machines. So, TENTATIVELY there is still a 3rd shift tonight. To verify if there is or is not a 3rd shift, call the factory lunchroom at 10:00 PM (716.692.1025). I am hoping to have the Facebook page and blog updated by that time, too.

NO PARKING FOR RUSTED ROOT CONCERT

As much as we'd like to be a good neighbor, parking in the Confer Plastics lot is not allowed for this weekend's Rusted Root concert at the adjoining Gratwick Park in North Tonawanda. Our lot is closed to those who do not work here due to liability and risk. It will be patrolled by a security guard.

Also, parking on the roadway coming into our property is limited to the south shoulder as we need the roadway open for tractor trailers, our workforce and other vehicles.

CONFER LADDERS & INTEX POOLS

Our swimming  pool ladders currently do not work with Intex pools. But, we're planning to come out with an adapter for the 2014 season that will allow our ladders to work with these increasingly-popular pools.
