Where we go

 

At WOODNAT project, Seistag is committed to improve industrial yields of the transformation of European hardwood plantations by means of new processes and products. The tasks of the company at the project mean maximizing the value of the logs by making their industrial transformation competitive and defining profitable products.

 

With that objective in mind, Seistag develops its activity in the field of first transformation. This means being close to the raw resource trying to generate value at the lower level of the industrial value chain. Seistag results should support further industrial transformations and future profitable products.

 

Every project for Seistag is an opportunity to find new ways of value creation. Therefore, the expected result of WOODNAT project is a new and profitable business line. That business line should take advantage of a local resource. Moreover, it should be carried out throughout competitive transformation processes and innovative wood products.
