Södra certifies cladding

Södra’s sawmill at Långasjö has been certified by Swedish Wood for the production of certified pre-painted cladding (Swedish: Certifierad Målad Panel, CMP). CMP is a guarantee for quality-assured and factory-PAINTED external cladding panels, as the company says in the press release received by Lesprom Network.

“CMP means that suppliers can guarantee the quality of their processing, finishing, paint systems and raw material. The certification mark means that each panel can be traced – that we know where it comes from and how it has been treated along the way. CMP represents a quality-assured panel, a product with a “stamp of quality” and a guarantee that the product is as good as it gets. And a sustainable choice for external cladding,” said Fredrik Gustavson, Sales Director, Södra Wood Scandinavia.

All stages of the CMP production process are documented to enable panel traceability and guarantee top quality. The paints used in CMP production processes are tested and approved by accredited third-party organisations to meet the requirements of applicable standards and regulations. The paints have been formulated for exterior wood surfaces and applied under optimum conditions, using the right amount of paint to ensure a long service life and uniform results.

Södra began producing primed cladding at its sawmill in Långasjö in 2013.
