The following factors contribute
in making the VacuBright™ process so unique

Hard maple and yellow birch of the highest quality. North American hard maple is renowned world-wide for its remarkable properties. Our mill’s proximity to forests reduces the time between harvest and processing, thereby preserving the quality of the fiber.
Double-taper primary sawing. This technology allows for alignment with the natural grain of the wood. Only straight-grained white boards are selected for these components.
Pre-drying in a controlled environment. Protects and preserves freshly cut lumber, reducing damage caused by prolonged exposure to sunlight and other elements.

Vacuum drying. This unique process reduces oxidation, preserves the natural color of the wood fiber and delivers an impressive whiteness while providing unequalled straightness and stability.
28 criteria for wood component cutting. These include fiber straightness, color, in addition to many other natural characteristics of hardwood.
Classification according to Champeau’s quality standards. Specially adapted to the baseball bat industry, our quality classification was developed specifically to meet the technical and economic needs of the market.

VacuBright certifies manufacturers of baseball bats the highest quality components in the industry

Keith Clark, Dubuque Clamp Works

It is easy for me to recommend Champeau to any business who is wanting a true working partner. We all want that in life or business – one who is going to commit to try understand their business, processes, and any special requirements then deliver quality. This is only tested when you enter into a relationship with trust and commitment on both sides. I have started this working relationship with Champeau and am completely confident that it is a part of my growing success and one I am happy to recommend to anyone looking for the same. Their mission statement is spot on!
