The Metsä Wood mill in Lohja, Finland, produces Kerto® LVL. First, as much of the wood as possible is used for Kerto LVL. Part of the sawdust and wood chips that are generated in processing the engineered wood are used in pulp production, and the rest for bioenergy for running the mill. At Lohja, the bio heating plant has been built next to the mill in order to capture the full potential of the production. The heat energy produced at the plant covers the needs of the mill, which makes the Lohja Kerto LVL mill 100% energy self-sufficient. In fact, there’s enough left for the surrounding community.
