ø Over the past couple of years, several large modern sawmills have been built
in Russia. These new plants are now starting up in the short term. Their total
annual capacity amounts to 3 million cubic metres of logs. Having participated
in more than half of those projects, Jartek has gained wide-ranging experience
in constructing new sawmills. This experience is of great importance to us. The
new sawmills are built in the places with a good availability of raw materials
and proper logistics. But due to the lack of their experience in this industry,
the entire local staff must be trained during installation and commission. This
provides a significant challenge in order to successfully implement a project.
Despite the current troubles of the financial market,
we at Jartek strongly believe in the recovery of the
market. Consequently we are developing our future
supply increasingly towards comprehensive deliveries
that cover the complete project.
The situation in the Russian sawmill industry offers further challenges to
overcome. The machinery of old conventional sawmills is becoming obsolete, with
this old equipment resulting in poor productivity. In many plants, the annual output
per worker might remain even less than 300 m3 of sawn timber, whilst the
same indicator in most of the state-of-the-art Finnish sawmills is generally more
than 3.000 m3. This reduces profitability and impedes significantly upon the financing
of new investments. Moreover, the forests in the vicinity of the old sawmills
have been felled, with the longer distances in transporting raw timber bringing
about extra costs.
In Russia, the building stock is growing old and with rising living standards
people’s needs have risen as well. Therefore, the development of the Russian
economy will enable the domestic consumption of sawn timber to turn into a
strong growth. Elsewhere in Europe, the consumption of sawn timber is also
growing. Being the most ecological of building materials, wood is gaining ground
over other materials. In Europe, the availability of this raw material is on the
decrease. Consequently, the demand for Russian sawn timber will be increasing
in the time to come.
In brief, a great deal of new sawmills will be established in Russia in the coming
decade. Jartek has accumulated considerable experience in this line of
work – do not hesitate to utilize it in your future projects. We are at your disposal
anytime.

Log sorting and
infeeding to saw
ø As a new line of business, we have
initiated the handling of round timber.
Now our range includes log sorting
and infeeding to saw. We offer a
product family with a minor capacity
and a powerful heavy-duty series capable
of handling even up to a million
cubic metres of logs per year. In
connection with this, we have developed
the Transverse Log Feeder TLF,
as a replacement for the conventional
step feeder. This equipment is able to
handle up to 40 – 50 logs per minute.
The first deliveries are currently being
installed in the Komi Republic. The delivery
consists of a sorter with 24 bins
and infeeding to saw.
Reorganization of
timber dryer market
The timber drying facilities have al-
Fairs and events:
ways represented an essential part
of Jartek’s deliveries – as well as our
predecessor, Sateko’s. The changes
in the market situation make us recognize
more opportunities, particularly
in the channel drying market.
Some months ago, our competitor
Valutec acquired our other competitor
WSAB. Consequently, there are
only two notable providers of channel
dryers in the market. Therefore,
we are going to invest in the product
development of channel dryers and to
boost their sales and marketing.
Automation
ø At present, as the rate of machinery
automation perpetually increases,
we are continuously developing our
professional know-how. By effectively
advancing the automation, we will
strengthen our competence in sorting
plants, in handling of round timber and
in the automation of timber dryers.

Year 2009 were very difficult in the market of timber drying. Domestic sales in Finland
ground to a halt. Russia had also encountered similar problems, with nothing of note
happening there at the beginning of year 2009.
ø Now, after a long quiet period, inquiries
are evidently increasing both
in Finland and in Russia. With plenty
of offers made, we are expecting to
conclude new deals at the beginning
of this year.
In the late summer we concluded a
big new deal. Eight two-stage drive-through
chamber dryers complete
with the buildings will be delivered
to the Komi Republic. The foundations
are under construction now and the
goods have been shipped around the
turn of the year. The plant shall be
completed by spring
We once again delivered three new
chamber dryers on turnkey basis
to the factory of Karelia Upofloor
(Focus Wood) in Russia. We
concluded also a new deal at the end
of the year 2009. The deal consists
of nine chamber dryers. The heating
plant of the Heinola factory will be
moved there also, with Jartek taking
care of whole move.
The installation work at the factory
of Trans-Sibirskaja Lesnaja Kompanija
is going along well. In January
2009, the installations were commenced
in rather chilly weather conditions
which, however, did not disturb
the local assembling staff. Whilst thirty
chambers are almost complete, but
due to local difficulties the client has
been forced to postpone the commissioning
until spring.
A Moscow-based group of investors placed an order from us for a sawmill to be delivered
to the Komi Republic, Russia. The final destination is the village of Kazluk situated
approximately 100 km north-west from the city of Syktyvkar. The project is named
Sawmill Number 1. There were several international enterprises competing for this
project, resulting in a long and tough bargaining process. For Jartek, the most important
reasons in clinching the deal included earlier successful performance in Russia,
cost-efficient solutions at the first stage and a lucrative prospect to double the production
quite easily in future.
At the first stage, the annual output of
sawmill will be almost 100.000 m3 of
sawn timber, but the production might
be doubled within 2 years. Furthermore,
the client is planning to invest in
further processing and Jartek has
already made some plans regarding
this project. The concept seems to be
highly reasonable; the minor investments
enable the completion of basic
operations first, i.e. timber handling,
production and sales of sawn timber. In
future, when everything is working, the
capacity will be increased in all sectors.
The project consists of:

Log sorting with a sufficient capacity even for the second stage.
Saw infeeding to be run in one shift at the first stage.
Sawing machine Veisto R250 with 1-shift usage at the first stage.
There is a space reserved for the upgrading of line.
Sideproduct handling, including a screen, debarking machine as
well as conveyors for bark, saw dust and chippings.
Combi sorting plant which is converted into green sorting at the
second stage, followed by a separate dry sorting.
4 drying chamber lines including conveyors, with 4 additional lines
at the second stage.
Boiler plant with a sufficient capacity also for the second stage

Initiated at the beginning of last year,
the project is proceeding at a brisk pace
now. The final green light given in
the spring 2009 boosted the project
to an incredible speed. The excavation
work commenced in June and the site
was rather ready for receiving the machinery
in October. The installation of
the first equipment will start in January
and all installation work will be finished
in April. Then the plant is ready
for sawing. The schedule of the project
is extremely ambitious and the client
has been fortunate to find out very appropriate
partners for implementing
the project. Up to now everything has
run according to schedule and without
any delays. We dare say that there will
be plenty of talk about this successful
project for a long time to come!

Current report on thermal
modification plants
Text: Timo Tetri
The thermal modification of wood by Thermowood technology still shows increasing
interest, with Jartek concluding new supply contracts. At the same time, in cooperation
with our customers, we are continuing with the research and development of utilizing
this technology to new wood species and new market areas.
Bois Durables de
Bourgogne, France
ø In France, the thermal modification
plant supplied by Jartek was started
up in early autumn 2009 – Jartek’s
first project in France. The delivery
consisted of a thermal modification
chamber of 20 m3, a thermal oil boiler
plant and a test chamber. Located
in the province of Burgundy, Bois
Durables de Bourgogne’s plants treat
species such as ash, oak, beech and
also local soft wood to some extent.
Founded by the well known local wood
processing companies, this new company
supplies the owner companies
with its products and also other wood
processing companies with its services.
This was a real ‘Green Field Project’;
the plant is situated in the green
countryside and a year ago this area
was grazed by cows.
SWM-Wood Oy, Finland
ø In Mikkeli, SWM-Wood Oy is about
to complete its annual investments.
The 50 m3 Thermowood thermal modification
chamber was taken into use
in early October and the sticking and
packaging plants are being completed
soon.
During the project, the existing thermal
modification capacity was used
whilst building the new plant continued.
The constructional work involved
in the machinery investments was
the greatest challenge for us.
Located in Pursiala of Mikkeli, the site
of SWM-Wood Oy is almost full of buildings
and matching the building work
with the assembly of machinery must
be taken into account in scheduling
the project.
TreTimber, Estonia
ø Last summer Jartek concluded the
delivery contract with Estonian Tre
Timber. This contract comprises the
delivery of a new thermal modification
chamber of 50 m3. The chamber
will be built into the customer’s plant
in Tallinn. It will be connected to the
thermal oil boiler plant delivered by us
and placed adjacent to the chamber
delivered earlier.
With the new chamber, the thermal
wood capacity by Tre Timber is nearly
doubled. This new chamber will be
completed in early 2010.
