Timber and white chip sale  

The modern Latop Energy sawmill operation in Hostouň, optimising wood sawing, offers a wide range of quality processed dried or raw spruce timber.

Our capacity is 60,000 m3 of sawn timber a year (with a two-shift operation), and up to 30,000 m³ timber dried onto a specific moisture content according to the customer’s requirement.

We process round timber of the following specifications:

• max. lenght: 5 m
• min. length: 2 m
• max. diameter: 110 cm  

Technology

Logs are debarked with a Baljer-Zembrod debarker with an integrated root swelling reduction, and then run through an electronic 2D measuring frame. The main machine in the facility is an EWD bandsaw EBB – V 1800/1 with a double cut band. Another machine, BNK 225/6 by EWD, can do both resawing and edging. The combination of these two machines allows us to saw logs up to 110 cm in diameter.
