Metsä Wood says it is sharpening its UK growth strategy following recent customer portfolio changes and after making significant investments.
After an investment in a state-of-the-art ERP system and a new state-of-the-art production line for door linings and casings, Metsä Wood UK says it is focused on building a balanced and resilient customer base, competitive solutions and long-term customer partnerships.
Metsä Wood said the new production line demonstrated Metsä Wood’s long-term commitment to the UK market, as well as improving efficiency, product quality, availability, and customer choice, while strengthening the company’s manufacturing capability.
“The UK remains a key market for Metsä Wood,” said James Davenport, managing director at Metsä Wood UK.
“Our focus is firmly on the future: building strong, long-term relationships with merchant, trade and construction customers, while continuing to offer reliable, high-quality timber and engineered wood solutions.”
The company has established manufacturing sites in Boston and King’s Lynn, supported by the wider Metsä Group supply network, providing customers with softwood and engineered wood products.
The company reports recent growth in selected areas, with further opportunities identified in both engineered wood and machined timber products.
