Vida Borgstena AB is one of Vida Group's 12 sawmills and has now signed an agreement with RemaSawco AB regarding the upgrade of the sawmill's combined green/dry sorter at the sawmill in Borgstena, Sweden. The order includes, among other things, the board scanner RS-BoardScannerP. The order value amounts to just over SEK 3.2 million (approx. $312,000).

Delivery, installation and commissioning will take place during the Q2 2024.

"This will be the eighth Boardscanner from RemaSawco to be installed in the group, this of course means that we are satisfied with previous installations, but there are also great advantages in having the same system to be able to effectively use the competence we have built up internally across the entire business," says Jonas Axelsson, Technical Director Vida Group.

Vida’s sawmill in Borgstena saws and planes spruce timber for use as structural timber and for roof trusses. The main market for the timber is UK.
