Industrial Sawmill & Kiln Drying Operations
From raw African concession harvest to export-grade lumber, our facilities in Ghana are engineered for high-throughput precision.
We employ modern heavy-duty horizontal band breakdown saws capable of processing logs up to 160cm in diameter. Our computer-automated kiln drying chambers strictly regulate moisture content between 8% and 12%, relieving internal cellular stresses to eliminate warping, cup, and surface checking.
Every shipment undergoes anti-stain dip treatment, anti-split S-hooks application, and end-sealing before container stuffing.
Sustainable Concession Harvest
Selective harvesting according to minimum exploitable girth limits governed by the Ghana Forestry Commission.
Log Yard Acoustic Sorting
Every log is inspected for heartwood sound density, measured, tagged with barcoded forestry IDs, and graded.
Heavy Band Saw Conversion
Primary breakdown into square cants, boules, and specified thickness lumber with minimal kerf waste.
Kiln Drying & Anti-Split Sealing
Moisture conditioned to 10-12%, ends coated with paraffin wax, and strapped with galvanized bands for shipping.
