“What an incredible week it’s been at LIGNA 2025!” – Raute.
LIGNA has just wrapped up last week with fun-filled activities, laughter, greets, meets and of course latest innovations. Raute was one of the prime exhibitors of this show and now they are deeply grateful for everything they have achieved during these days.
“As we close an exciting week in Hannover, Germany, we’re deeply grateful for the many insightful conversations, renewed friendships, and promising new connections we’ve made.” – Raute.
Raute’s CEO Mika Saariaho summed up the spirit of this week perfectly: “Despite current global turbulence, people here at LIGNA are looking beyond immediate challenges. The industry is thriving on innovation, confidence, and forward-thinking solutions. It gives me great optimism for the future.”
At Raute, they are proud to play a key role in shaping this future through:
Raw Material Efficiency – MakingWoodMatter through smarter technology and sustainable practices.
AI-based Defect Detection – Leveraging artificial intelligence to achieve unmatched precision, reduce waste, and boost product quality.
Process Efficiency and the Role of Data – Transforming wood processing with data-driven insights to increase productivity and decision-making confidence.
More on Data-driven veneer, plywood, and LVL production
The shift toward data-driven production is transforming how veneer, plywood, and LVL mills operate, unlocking new levels of efficiency, consistency, and profitability. What began as simple software add-ons has evolved into an integrated ecosystem of intelligent analysers, automated decision-making, and real-time data insights.
Today, modern mills harness advanced tools such as integrated data platforms and high-precision analyzers to collect and interpret performance metrics across every production phase. From peeling and drying to composing and repairing, these technologies enable better material recovery, reduced waste, optimized energy usage, and consistently higher product quality, driven by data, not guesswork.
The most competitive mills today are no longer relying on guesswork. They’re using intelligent production systems to unlock higher yields, reduce downtime, and boost profitability across the board. The whitepaper explores how leading manufacturers are turning real-time data into better decisions using Raute’s MillSIGHTS and advanced analysers. From optimising grading accuracy to identifying hidden inefficiencies, customers will gain a clear understanding of how data becomes a strategic tool — not just a technical one.
They wanted to offer a heartfelt “thank you” to everyone who stopped by their booth, shared customers’ stories, or simply waved hello. Special thanks also to their Raute colleagues around the world supporting them behind the scenes — visitors made this week possible.
