Whether your industry is veneer, plywood or LVL, there is always a "fit-to-your-need" line from Raute's own offering for any and all production processes starting from log handling, running through veneer production to plywood or LVL.

The core of production lines is made of machines. Many of Raute’s machines can be installed into existing lines as modernizations, also to other brand but Raute lines.

Year 2022 will be remembered as the year when Russia attacked Ukraine, causing severe negative consequences to the world economy. When the war began in February, over half of our order book for 2022 consisted of projects in Russia. Since the end of February, we have not made any new agreements with Russian operators and our Russian business is being gradually scaled down.
While we were winding down our Russian operations, our businesses in North America, Latin America and EMEA were performing very well, helping to mitigate the impact of lost Russian business. This is an important proof of our agility and capability to adjust our business to cope even with such a dramatic change in our business environment. In addition, I’m very proud of the strong development of our technology services sales.
I want to express my appreciation for the dedication and hard work of all Rauteans during these most exceptional of times. I also want to thank our customers and shareholders for the great collaboration during this challenging year. I’m confident that together we can make the year 2023 a good year for us all.
