The company “Šilutės baldai,” part of the SBA Group, is a leading furniture manufacturer in the Nemunas Delta region. Until 2022, the company sold most of its wood offcuts and sawdust to biofuel producers. To enhance sustainability, they invested in advanced UMP Technika BP-500 presses and an automatic packaging line, integrating them into their storage infrastructure. The new briquette production line is scalable for future growth, allowing increased production volumes and efficiency. By recycling manufacturing by-products, “Šilutės baldai” aims to use resources efficiently and reduce environmental impact. Their success story inspires others to invest in technology and uphold their values.

UAB Užmojai su Garantijomis has been working with us for over 15 years. What began with just a single BP-420 briquetting press is now an automated briquetting and packing system from four BP-500 presses. Along with briquetting, they are also using UMP Technika solutions to turn their scraps into sawdust to be upcycled as briquettes. Investments into these systems have allowed to increase their byproduct value and diversify their product portfolio. In the upcoming future more projects are foreseen together with UMP Technika.

UAB „Fusis“ is an example of sustainable innovation by using VVS shredders to convert offcuts unsuitable for traditional use into biofuel, which now powers their dryers in a closed-loop system within the company. This shift highlights Fusis commitment to maximizing resource efficiency and minimizing waste, significantly reducing their environmental footprint. By integrating our technology with lots of practices, Fusis sets a standard for responsible resource management, demonstrating how businesses can innovate for both economic and environmental benefit. Their dedication to sustainable practices underscores their leadership in environmental stewardship and commitment to a greener future.
