Construction of binderholz’ Solid Wood Panel Plant II In Salzburg, Austria, Nearing Completion

Construction on binderholz’ solid wood panel plant II located in in St. Georgen bei Salzburg, Austria, began in August 2021, and production is anticipated to start in late 2022Q4. The new plant will not only represent a milestone from a technical point of view, but it will also become another showcase project in solid wood construction within the binderholz Group.

According to binderholz, the site will have the world’s most modern and powerful solid wood panel plant. The plant will be fully automated, and every aspect is expected to meet the highest economic and ecological demands. The production hall—with an area of 180 x 40 m and a height of 27 m (high-bay warehouse) and 20 m (production hall itself)—will be home to a two-story production facility as well as the fully automated two-row high-bay warehouse made of solid wood.

binderholz says the additional capacities for 3-ply solid wood panels in the format 5000/5050 x 1250 x 12 – 60 mm for the European market will be able to close the supply gap in Europe. Additionally, the company says it will intensify production of profiled 3-ply panels to become even more efficient and extend the product range for our international customers. In the DIY sector, the product range is extended by tailor-cut panels and underfloor panels. Profiles such as tongue and grooves with chamfer are offered.
