Our first company was founded over 100 years ago. That’s about the time it takes for a pine tree to grow to maturity for harvesting, here in the north of Sweden. In Rundvirke Industrier, and its subsidiary companies, we are close to the forests we work in. This, together with solid professional knowledge, a feeling for our wood raw materials and the ability to improve our products in step with conservation, has made us Sweden’s largest specialist timber group.
There was a time when railway sleepers lasted no longer than ten years, and it was impossible to expand our electricity grid, because all effort went into replacing rotting power line poles. We solved the problem by impregnating our poles.
Today, we are characterised by wood protection and high quality wood raw materials.
Most of the trees that we harvest are first checked and selected in the forest by one of our inspectors. For us this is obvious and necessary to obtain timber for use in our special production of telephone and power line poles, joinery components, sleepers and posts.
We are part of Sweden’s largest special timber group, which is active from southern Dalarna to northern Jämtland. Would you like help with felling, forest management or other forestry advice? Contact our subsidiary, Rundvirke Skog.
