Production sites

As part of the wood industry cluster, the plant is integrated with the Ilim Group’s pulp and paper mill.

The production facilities include framesaw and chipper-canter profiling technology, Springer grading lines, Valutec drying kilns and kiln-dried grading lines.

The timber yard for 15,000 cbm has a loading area for railway wagons and a container terminal inside the plant building.

At the time of acquisition by Ilim Timber, the sawmill operations were suspended due to log supply constraints.

The plant in Bavaria, Germany’s largest wood industrial region, is benefitting from its proximity to its customers with a demand for sawn timber and co-products (woodchips and sawdust).

The production facilities are fully equipped with state-of-the-art machinery, such as a Linck profiling line with a capacity of 800,000 cbm per year, Springer grading technology, a USNR planer, Mahild drying kilns, and a 20 megawatt heating plant.

The mill is placed at the core of a wood industry cluster encompassing the production of glulams, chipboards, and pellets.

The production facilities include two Linck lines, Springer grading machinery, Vanicek drying kilns and two planing lines.

The plant’s own CHP provides heat for the drying kilns and produces power for the electrical grid.

A major capacity upgrade in 2012 enabled to increase the output from 160,000 cbm to 230,000 cbm plywood per year.

The mill employs the advanced technology of Raute, Valon Kone and Hashimoto to ensure high-quality products.

Today, the mill ranks the highest among Russian producers of softwood sanded and unsanded plywood. Made of pine and larch, this WBP plywood is highly resistant to moisture and durable against mechanical strain.
