About Coastwest Mfg.
Coastwest Manufacturing’s history began in 1993 when
Counter-Line’s founder Rudy Kopp expanded his
company by building a 10,000 square foot facility
and purchasing the equipment to start manufacturing
post-formed laminate countertops. It wasn’t long
before Coastwest Mfg became a significant supplier
of laminate countertops in Vancouver’s lower
mainland. The commitment to quick turn-around and
quality workmanship brought consistent growth and
the need for a larger facility in 1998. Coastwest
now operates from our current factory of more than
17,500 square feet, centrally located and serves
customers covering British Columbia, Alberta and the
US. Our product offerings include the latest in
laminate selection, styles and profiles to meet
popular design trends. Our focus has never changed
and now more than ever our commitment to quality and
customer service remains as our cornerstone and
benchmark.
About Counter-Line
In 1989 Rudy Kopp took his expertise and experience in the
countertop industry to start up a business to cut,
finish and install laminate countertops. What began
as a small two-person shop grew into a viable little
company and gained market share through local
cabinet shops and contractors. Within a few years
the small shop couldn’t hold the inventory required
to support the growing list of customers. With the
focus on the commercial market and business to
business sales, it was only a matter of time before
the need for a larger facility, offices and
showroom. In 1993, with the establishment of
Coastwest Manufacturing, the move to their own
building took place. Growth continued and a second
expansion into a larger facility and our current
location happened in 1998. Counter-Line has widened
our scope to include many more products over the
years, but the most significant change to our
business plan includes expanding service to the
renovation and retail market through our dealers and
our own showroom.
Our claim to fame is post form laminate counter tops in all of the latest profiles, colours and finishes. We run daily standard kitchen, vanity, and bar top but have capabilities that will now allow us to produce as narrow at 8” up to 58”. We take flat sheets of particle board, laminate, a drum of water based PVA adhesives, a little hot melt and with our newly installed state of the art production line, produce a post formed counter top with the highest of quality. We palletize and ship to our many stocking dealers and cutting stations or cut a finished product ourselves to ship. We do it all with superior service and quick turn around times.
