“Knoop’s broad background in the timber and wood pellet industries is an important addition to Viridis management team, as we expand our production capabilities in order to satisfy the rapid increase in wood pellet demand. Knoop’s operations management expertise, long successful track record, and industry relationships will reinforce our management team’s efforts to expand our product offering capabilities and achieve profitability,” commented Christopher Robertson, CEO of Viridis.
“Heading operations at this dynamic stage in the company’s development is a great opportunity. Viridis is fast working to become one of the principle players in the rapidly growing global biomass industry. Viridis is uniquely positioned as the only player with manufacturing facilities on both coasts of Canada, providing a global reach. It is also one of the only public pure-play pellet companies in the industry with access to the capital markets, a growing track record of cost-effective acquisitions and successful integrations and, importantly, a corporate goal to add capacity in an industry with a highly favorable supply-demand imbalance,” commented Tim Knoop.
Viridis Energy Inc. is a publicly traded, "Cleantech" manufacturer and distributor of renewable energy providing wood waste biomass fuel to global residential and industrial markets.
