A Guided Tour of Unadilla Laminated Products (Part 1)

Here at Una-Lam, we love giving tours and telling people about our long company history. But, we know that not everyone can make it to our plant, so we've put together some photos and descriptions to share with everyone, near and far. The following is the first in an eight part series of stories about Una-Lam that we will post over the coming weeks. Enjoy!

In the Beginning: About Unadilla Laminated Products (Una-Lam) and the Unadilla Silo Company, Inc.

In 1892, the Van Cott family began selling lumber in Unadilla, NY. In 1906, we made the first Unadilla silo, beginning a product line that would serve farmers until the 80s. We incorporated as the Unadilla Silo Company, Inc. in 1909, and we're excited to celebrate a century of incorporation this year.

To further our commitment to farmers, the Unadilla Silo Company experimented with glue laminated barn rafters in 1928. By 1963, this business had picked up steam and we expanded our laminated products division into a new facility in nearby Sidney, NY where we continue production today.

For more than a century, Una-Lam has built its reputation on a constant commitment to quality and an eye on the future of building. Today’s leaders at Una-Lam continue to embody the spirit of tradition meeting innovation.

Now, with members of the sixth generation of the Van Cott family working here, we continue the tradition of wood products manufacturing.
