The decision to build stainless steel kilns was initially the result of classic Swedish engineering. Professional pride gave rise to robust designs that were able to withstand the changing seasons and deliver the right quality – year after year. We now know that they are also sustainable in many other respects.

It’s time to sum up the year and look ahead to 2024. Following a few truly successful years for the industry, 2023 saw a major slowdown. The economic unrest was not confined to our industry, but characterized many parts of society.

Curious about our latest generation of our high capacity TC continuous kilns? Or how the new functions in our Valmatics 4.0 control system boosts the bottom line for sawmills around the world?

Valutec's success in launching TC continuous kilns in North America has clearly reverberated around the industry. That is one of the key takeaways from the world's largest sawmill fair, Ligna in Hanover, Germany, where Valutec featured as one of the exhibitors.
