Thank You, TP&EE! We Had a Blast!
Wednesday, October 5th, 2022
It was a great show and we had a blast! This year’s Timber Processing & Energy Expo return to the Portland Exposition Center was a welcome event that we were excited to attend.
The attendees were as enthusiastic as we were to be at the show for three days of schmoozing, catching up and discovering what’s new in the sawmill and lumber industries. With over 800 exhibitors coupled with two stimulating conferences, this show had something for everyone in the timber industry.
We were happy to reunite with old friends, connect with new faces and form new partnerships, in real time. Moreover, it was energizing to be in a big room filled with people having conversations and sharing memories.
Team Brunette Comments
Our sales team had plenty of good things to say about this year’s event. A few of their comments were:
“This show was an eye opener for me, it was interesting and informative to see the competition up close and personal as well as having a chance to view equipment upstream and downstream from ours in a mill site.”
“My personal view on the show was excellent, great to be in front of customers once again.”
“No question, people were enjoying the meet and greet part of the trade shows, opportunities to shake hands and renew past friendships all were very visible.”
“It was exciting to see people out and about, milling around asking questions, shaking hands, just like old times!”
“It was a good experience with a great BMC team!”
Team Brunette had busy, exhaustive three days at the show, but overall had a great time at TP&EE 2022! We are already planning for the 2024 show!
Thank you!
Many thanks to our hard-working friendly sales team. [Pictured in the black shirts] Sonia Marchesini, Patrick Browne, Ryan Coates, Colleen Koustas, and Glenn Clarke.
Thank you to all of you who stopped by to say hello and talk shop with the team. Thank you as well, Hatton-Brown Expositions, an affiliate of Timber Processing magazine, for hosting this successful and well-organized event!

Cheers to Fifty Years!
Friday, September 23rd, 2022
On Saturday, September 17th, Brunette Machinery said “Cheers to fifty years!” in celebration of Larry Walsh’s 50-year work anniversary!
Larry Walsh, our superhero service technician, started work with Brunette Machine Works (now Brunette Machinery) as a machinist apprentice in 1972 when he was eighteen years old. Larry earned his machinist ticket, and moved into the fitting department. There he worked fitting and assembling metal parts for debarkers, bandmills, screens, chippers, the auto chip edger, and other equipment for sawmill and veneer plywood applications.
Later, when Brunette Machinery moved its head office to Surrey, Larry continued to work in the new shop but soon decided to retire. Well, he thought he decided to retire, but it didn’t take much to convince him to stay with the company as Brunette’s principal service technician.
Larry is known as our superhero service tech, not only for his expertise with every Brunette machine, but also for his willingness to go where he is needed and his knack for figuring out exactly what needs to be done. Those who have worked with Larry respect his knowledge and his strong work ethic. He is well known for his feisty personality and his no-nonsense approach to doing the job right.
To commemorate Larry’s outstanding milestone, Brunette held an anniversary party at the Hastings Racecourse in Vancouver. There was food, music and of course, cake! Team Brunette had a blast betting on the horses — and everyone had a bit of luck! At least there weren’t any tears or fist clenching after the last stretch!
Kirk, presented Larry with a Canucks jersey emblazoned with the number 50, a blue Brunette superhero cape — which he immediately put on — and a framed collage of “Larry” photos that we had all signed.
The rest of the afternoon was spent chatting and reminiscing about the “good old days” (when Larry had hair!)
It was a spectacular day. The weather was fantastic and the food was delicious. There was a lot of laughter and much excitement as we cheered on our favourites to win!
Thank you, Larry, for your fantastic work and contribution to Brunette! Congratulations on your amazing achievement! Cheers to fifty years!
