During 2025, Setra will investigate the possibilities of divesting the sawmill in Malå. A divestment is expected to contribute to Setra’s opportunities to further strengthen its position in Central Sweden, where the company’s raw material supply is expected to improve in the coming years.
During 2024, Setra took major steps in an extensive upgrade of the sawmill in Malå with new timber intake, new sawing line, updated raw sorting and increased drying capacity. The new saw line has been installed and start-up of the saw is proceeding according to plan.
The full potential is expected to be reached in 2027 when the capacity of sawn goods increases from the current 160,000 m3/year to 340,000 m3/year.
Malå is located in one of Europe’s most attractive raw material areas, both in terms of quality and growth.
The geographical location, combined with a well-invested sawmill, equipped with the latest available technology, creates good conditions for long-term good earnings and the opportunity to find a good industrial home for the sawmill in Malå.
The sales process will take place in a structured process during the first half of 2025, where Access Partners has been mandated as coordinating advisor.
