SAWMILL
OF THE FUTURE

Sawmill of the future - smart, digital, sustainable

The sawmill of the future is far more than a modern production facility – it is an intelligent, connected hub within a fully digitalised and sustainable value chain. From log logistics to the delivery of the final product, every process is captured, analysed and controlled in real time. Sensors, artificial intelligence and automation enable a self-learning production system that adapts flexibly to material properties, order volumes and energy demands.

At the same time, digitalisation provides the foundation for resource-efficient operations: optimised processes, predictive maintenance and data-driven decision-making help save energy, reduce waste and maximise the value creation of the increasingly scarce resource – wood. In doing so, the sawmill not only becomes more efficient but also makes an active contribution to a resource-conscious and climate-friendly wood industry.

Another key factor is the human element. Modern, ergonomic and safe workplaces enhance the appeal of the industry and are essential to attracting and retaining skilled professionals in the future. Only those who combine technology, sustainability and good working conditions will thrive in the wood industry in the long term.

At HOLTEC, we are firmly committed to contributing to this transformation – with a clear focus on taking log handling to the next level. As specialists in the front end of the sawmill, we are driving automation and digitalisation precisely where it all begins: in the efficient, sustainable and people-centred log handling.
