Value creation<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The timber industry is very important to Estonia. The timber industry accounts for approximately one-quarter of the total production of the manufacturing industry, more than 10% of the total value added of the Estonian economy and ca<\/em> 20% of export and provides jobs for ca<\/em> 10% of employed people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lemeks\u2019 goal is to process timber in Estonia as much as possible. All plants of Lemeks are located in rural areas. Thus, Lemeks makes sure that there is life and work in the countryside. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Palmako, Pinest, Estonian Plywood and Nordwood, which belong to the Lemeks Group, are engaged in the first-stage processing as well as the post-processing of timber. This allows us to valorise the local resource to the maximum, which is supported by an approach that values the environment and is sustainable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First-stage processing of timber<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Round timber is cut into square sawn timber, milled into round logs or turned into veneer. Palmako<\/a><\/strong>, Nordwood<\/strong><\/a> and Estonian Plywood<\/a><\/strong> deal with the first-stage processing of timber in the Lemeks Group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nordwood<\/strong> <\/a>cuts beams and boards from sawlogs, the associated products of which are cellulose chips and sawdust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Palmako makes machine rounded and deep-impregnated garden products under the Imprest<\/strong> <\/a>trademark, using the thin, coniferous lumber obtained in the course of forest felling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Estonian <\/a><\/strong>Plywood<\/strong> <\/a>makes veneer from fine and thick birch blocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Post-processing of timber<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Various finished products are applied to first-stage processed wood. Post-processing in Lemeks is carried out by Pinest<\/strong><\/a>, <\/strong>Estonian Plywood<\/strong><\/a> and Palmako<\/strong><\/a>.  <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pinest <\/a><\/strong>mainly produces finger-jointed and glulam timber components from pine for window, door and moulding components.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Estonian <\/a><\/strong>Plywood<\/strong> <\/a>produces coated and ordinary plywood from veneer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wooden houses are made in the plants of Palmako \u2013 from children\u2019s play houses to summer cottages and residential houses. Palmako also manufactures glulam timber beams and glulam logs as construction and structural timber under the Construct <\/strong><\/a>trademark.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The responsible and environmentally friendly mindset of the Lemeks Group is illustrated by the fact that all of the wood waste generated in each plant is pressed into Heatit<\/strong> <\/a>heating pellets at the Palmako granule plant.<\/p>\n\n\n
