Russian Wood Alliance is ready for cooperation with potential buyers of quality products and for entry into new markets.

The shipment of finished products is carried out by sea containers and trucks. Our company has flexible logistic capability of finished products' delivery to our customers within short timeframes and at competetive costs.

Products

- Kiln-dried Nordic coniferous sawn timber (whitewood and redwood), moisture content 16-20%. Grading according to Russian State Standard GOST 26002-83: SF (1-4) with additional restrictions on wane and stains and the 5th grade.

As a raw material we use spruce and pine saw logs harvested by our own resources in the Republic of Karelia. The quality of Karelian coniferous wood is highly appreciated on the domestic and export sawn timber markets due to its solid structure gained through severe climatic conditions.

- Planed coniferous timber – S4S, brushed and profiled boards.

- Stress graded sawn timber as per EN 14081-1:2005+A1:2011 with CE marking. This kind of timber is widely used in wooden construction and is in heavy demand on the European timber market.

Finished products are packed into special branded plastic wrapping from five sides ensuring timber quality. Before wrapping every package passes through a special press in order to achieve the highest tightness and for banding.

Decent packaging and careful loading at our production site is a guarantee of package integrity and marketable condition of timber until it's unloaded at the customer's warehouse.

The goods are FSC® 100% certified.
