Our production derives mainly from northern spruce, pine and fir (black spruce, red spruce, white spruce, pine and fir).
To achieve the right combination of grades and prices our team developed an innovative approach. Then there are many visits to the mills with pallet manufacturers to educate them about the mills’ manufacturing capacities and limitations. In this way we were able to develop the right grades for the right customers.
Today our grading system is based on the following specifications:
Thickness:+ or – and tapering or not
Width:+ or –
Length:+ or –
Wane:maximum thickness on maximum length as a % of pieces
Rot:maximum thickness, width and length as a % of pieces
Split:maximum length as a % of pieces
Knots:maximum diameter and soundness
Shake:% of the pieces
Stain:if the wood is “white” and “sound”
Surface:smoothness
