MONTREAL, Quebec, June 19, 2007 — EMCO Building Products Corp., one of Canada's leading manufacturers and distributors of quality home building and home renovation products, today officially announced it has changed its name to Building Products of Canada Corp.

This name change represents a return to roots, and evokes a rich history. The company was first incorporated as Building Products Limited, and in 1964 became Building Products of Canada Limited. The company then joined the EMCO organization and underwent a subsequent renaming in 1987.

The BP in the oval, though modernized over the years, was retained continuously as a corporate trademark because it had become synonymous with integrity, quality and service to the Canadian building industry. Today, Building Products of Canada Corp. has officially reclaimed that visual identity. The company's new logo places the BP inside an open oval, evoking the letter 'C'.

"Our new name channels over 100 years of history. It represents both the brick-and-mortar and emotional investments we have in this country, as well as our commitment to our customers, suppliers and employees. It says much about who we are and where we are going as a company," said Yves Gosselin, President and CEO.
