A new high-frequency press, Groupe Ducerf accelerates its transformation
Groupe Ducerf invested €1.7 million in a cutting-edge high-frequency press. This ultra-modern, 4-in-1 piece of equipment expands the range and formats of our products. Thanks to this new machine, developed in collaboration with Weinig, our solid wood panels Panoplot®, glued-laminated panels Patchwood®, joinery blocks, and the first elements of future oak CLT (Cross-Laminated Timber) panels are now being manufactured. This innovation significantly improves resource management and enhances the working conditions of our operators.
