History

Sasco Products Limited started its operations in 1978 in the province of Nova Scotia and was founded by Sam Sorensen.

Sam obtained his certificate of master painter from the Danish Technological Institute  in Copenhagen where he learned the skills and techniques of gold leaf, grinding and mixing the paint. Sam immigrated to Canada in 1951 and started to work as a painter in the province of Ontario and later on in Newfoundland and Nova Scotia. Sam had always been keen to share his knowledge and expertise with other colleagues and employees. In 1988 Lissi Jeppesen joined Sasco Products. Lissi was a Chemical Engineer and she had brought the technical expertise and vision to Sasco Products in order to develop and promote green and water-based wood products.

As a highly trained and qualified expert in wood preservation methods with over more than 40 years of experience, mainly in utility and commercial fields as well as the private sector, Lissi became the second owner and president of Sasco Products and PoleCare International. Lissi had been a member of the Canadian Wood Preservation Association for more than 20 years. She had been also a long time member of the International Research Group of Wood Preservation (IRG).
