RPG effusor Newsletter - September 2007

Welcome Back! RPG
We hope you all had a wonderful summer vacation and are recharged to discuss new projects and specify more RPG.

While you all were vacationing, we were diligently at work with our summer intern Nathan Pape from the University of Hartford measuring many scattering surfaces, fabricated with our 3D printer.

This December RPG will be celebrating its 25th Anniversary. With this announcement we kick off a fall season full of several exciting major announcements to celebrate this achievement, so stay tuned.

If you missed any issues, all previous issues are now on line.

Did You Know? Here, There and Everywhere
To begin our Silver Anniversary celebration, we are proud to announce that RPG products will soon be available worldwide. We have just completed negotiations for new distributors in Europe, the Middle East, Japan, Korea, China, South America, Africa and Oceania. Therefore, RPG can now support your specifications globally.

John H Groth Promotion
This October John H. Groth will celebrate his 15th Anniversary at RPG. To commemorate this anniversary and reward his exceptional talents, unselfish dedication and commitment to RPG, he is being promoted to COO/CFO and will oversee day-to-day operations at RPG. I will still play an active role, but this will allow me to focus on research and development, strategic alliances and the future growth of RPG.

Completed Projects
After many years of collaboration with n'H Akustik + Design's Topakustik and Topperfo products, RPG is emerging as the industry's leading supplier of completely engineered acoustic wood wall and ceiling systems. This year we have worked on many very complex projects with two standing out as being especially challenging. Morgan State University consisted of 2,000 uniqely sized panels in a variety of complex mountings, using customer supplied flitches, which were laid up into end and book matched panels. We were also fortunate to work on the auditorium in the new New York Times tower (photo) in Manhattan. It has been called the "jewel" of the project, and is visible through a glass wall in the arboreal entrance atrium. On this project, the architect selected individual trees, from which the flitches were extracted and collected into categories. These flitches were laid up into panels and fabricated into many uniques sizes for wall and custom black iron suspension. The project was delivered on budget and on time. So we invite you to think of RPG as your prefered supplier for complete engineered acoustic wood wall and ceiling systems.

Pending Projects
Due in part to our worldwide distribution efforts, RPG has been specified on several very prestigious projects. We are currently working on the new state of the art research facility for Samsung in Seoul, Korea. This project includes the Chairman's boardroom and Multi-purpose Hall. Probably the most prestigious project we have been fortunate to be specified on is the now famous Berj Dubai Tower, which is to be the world's tallest building. We are specified on four floors of the Chairman's Suite. Many exciting projects in the US and around the world are on the boards and we will be reporting on them in future newsletters.
