It is with great sadness that we share the passing of our employee, Shawn Allen. He unexpectedly passed away on the evening of Thursday, June 20, 2024. Shawn was a Pre-Glue Lead at Zip-O-Laminators and worked with us for almost 8 years. He was 53 years old.

This photo captures the first glulam order leaving the plant with the crew in front of it in June 2016. Shawn is the third from the right. He was with Zip-O-Laminators from day one. He will be greatly missed!
We wish to raise money to help Shawn’s family with any costs that may incur and to support them wherever needed. We invite you to make a donation, and Zip-O will match the total donated funds 100%. Contact us for more information.
