The shipping mark is very informative for the customers, since a sawn timber seller, for example, can see at a glance where a batch of sawn timber on its shelf was produced.
“Sawmilling-company or even unit-specific shipping marks have been used throughout history. Although we are leasing the facilities from Veisto, we obtained permission to use the KKN mark on our timber sawn in Kissakoski,” says Jani Nypelö, Sawmill Manager at Kissakoski.
“We felt that it benefits us to have all our products under the same shipping mark. There is no need for specifying the products by unit. The codes on package labels tell us where the sawn timber products have been produced, if need be. The name of the supplier unit will remain on the label,” Nypelö points out.
