Strong operational execution in a challenging market environment

In 2025, Raute continued strong operational execution, driven by efficiency improvements, supply chain optimizations and focus on safety. Thanks to the daily efforts of our committed team, disciplined project delivery and continuous improvements in our ways of working we achieved a strong financial result despite the decrease in net sales.

The market remained challenging which was reflected in the low order intake especially during the first half of the year. Despite the uncertainty, customers are gradually preparing for the market to become more active and are progressing their investment plans aimed at improving process efficiency and increasing capacity.

Through our continuously developing solutions and offering, we continue to lead the industry towards a more sustainable future in engineered wood products.
