Norlund is a Danish supplier of certified construction timber to Danish timber merchants and has one of the most modern Nordic softwood sawmills. Producing high-quality construction timber with the greatest possible consideration for the environment is one of our strengths, and sustainability is one of our keywords, both when it comes to the environment and the company’s ability to adapt to the market.
Norlund A/S is Denmark’s largest sawmill within the cutting of softwood for construction timber, which is supplied to both the Danish and European markets. The sawmill, located in Nørlund, processes softwood from all over the country and is a leader in the production of timber and construction wood for the construction industry.
With state-of-the-art and recently updated machinery, Norlund ensures high quality, high productivity and significant capacity. Annually, over 180,000 m³ of raw wood is processed, mainly Red Spruce, Sitka Spruce and Noble Fir from Danish forests.
Norlund was the first Danish softwood sawmill to be CE-certified according to EN 14081-1 for visual strength grading and in 2017 also for machine grading. We are also FSC, PEFC and ISPM15 certified.
Everything from production is utilised – from construction wood to by-products such as sawdust and bark, which are sold to e.g. slaughterhouses and power plants. Norlund works actively with energy management and was certified in environmental management in 2022.
The dream
The best sawmill in the Nordics for producing and delivering the right thing with a smart use of all resources
The core values
Core business
"Delivering the right product to the customer on time"
There is a focus on optimising energy consumption, with several initiatives helping to protect the environment.
In 2017, for example, we changed fluorescent tubes throughout the company, which resulted in 880 LED luminaires and various timers to ensure that the lights are switched off at night when they are not needed, for example.
We’ve switched to wind energy and biofuel that supplies the entire company. In 2022, we replaced older rubber-tired goats with two brand new Volvo L120 and L90, which with newer combustion engines have significantly lower consumption, and all the sawmill’s diesel trucks have been replaced with 16 modern Linde electric trucks.
We have been certified in energy management, which aims to monitor the company’s energy consumption to identify potential areas where it is recommended to invest in new or improve the existing*.
We focus on the potential areas where we can optimise energy, work with our core idea of continuing to minimise our environmental impact and use as little energy as possible to produce 1m3 of wood.
*In 2022, Norlund will transition to being certified in environmental management.
