Latvijas Finieris opened new Furniers mill warehouse building - one of the rare industrial buildings of large-sized wooden constructions in Riga, Latia.
The construction of the more than 3750 m2 Furniers mill warehouse designed by the architect Ingus Bērziņš of SIA "REMM" and implemented by SIA "Castor Construction" was started in the spring of 2021 and Euro 3.3 million were invested in the project. Almost 400 m3 of wood was used in the building as glued wooden beams, CLT panels and other wooden structures. This means that for many years, carbon in the equivalent of more than 350 tons of CO2 has been captured and stored.
Latvijas Finieris, realizing the ecological, economic and social advantages, made a strategic decision more than 15 years ago to use wood products as much as possible in the construction of new industrial buildings. Since then, two rounds of development of RSEZ SIA "Verems" have been realized in the solutions of large-sized glued wooden structures, a plywood production workshop at the "Kohila Vineer" mill in Estonia, the Impregnation workshop of the Chemical Products Plant in Bolderāja, as well as wood products have been widely used in a series of smaller construction and renovation projects.
