In 1951 Sauerland Spanplatte laid the foundation for the production of high quality extruded particle board in Arnsberg. Since 1992 the company operates a second production site in Gotha in order to supply the continuously increasing demand for Sauerland Board.
Today, 37 modern presses produce about 600.000 cubic metres of extruded board in the most diverse varieties.
Natural residual wood and chips from domestic sawmills form the basis for the product.
1.3 million cubic metres of softwood are processed annually ensuring optimum and environmentally friendly raw material utilisation. Responsibility towards nature is a matter of particular concern for Sauerland Spanplatte.
